YPSILANTI, Mich. -- , Noah Kim threw for two touchdowns and ran for another to lead Eastern Michigan past Sacramento State 28-17 in a season and Mid-American Conference opener on Saturday night.

Sacramento State's Carson Conklin went 25-for-46 for 221 yards and was intercepted once. Although the first quarter was scoreless, the Eagles had driven to the Sac State 6-yard line at the end of the period. At the other end of the field, they finished off their nine-play, 79-yard drive after Kim scored on a 5-yard run.
