Tosses two touchdowns Bazelak completed 21-of-32 throws for 257 yards and two touchdowns Saturday against CMU.
Impact There were seven games in 2020 in which Bazelak failed to throw a single touchdown. He is already off to a better start in 2021, as he notched at least two touchdown throws for just the third time in his collegiate career.
