MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. (AP) Scott Secor made four field goals, including a 55-yarder with 17 seconds left, to lift Ball State over Central Michigan 32-29 on Saturday.

Down 26-14 at halftime, Central Michigan tied it at 29 when Cooper Rush completed a play-action pass to Titus Davis for an 8-yard touchdown with 2:22 to play.

Ball State (2-5, 1-2 Mid-American) answered on its next series. KeVonn Mabon caught a key 9-yard pass from Jack Milas on third down to extend the drive and give the Cardinals a first-down at the Central Michigan 38. Milas completed a 1-yard pass on first down, then threw two incomplete passes before Secor booted the game-winner.

Rush was 20 of 32 for 245 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions to lead Central Michigan (4-4, 2-2).
