MUNCIE, Ind. -- For the first time since 2015, Ball State welcomed Bowling Green to Scheumann Stadium for a Mid-American Conference matchup. The Cardinals were unable to fend off the Falcons on the breezy Saturday afternoon, however, and fell by a 38-13 decision.
Ball State, led by Colin Johnson in his head coaching debut, fell to 3-8 (2-5 MAC) on the season, while Bowling Green advanced to 7-4 (6-1 MAC) with its victory.
The Cardinals' pair of scores came on well-placed strikes from Kadin Semonza. He first connected with Vaughn Pemberton late in the second quarter for a 51-yard touchdown, which marked the third-consecutive game in which Ball State had a score of more than 50 yards.
