COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Bowling Green State University’s football team was at it again on Saturday night, but a remarkable effort against a ranked power conference opponent came up one touchdown short once again.
BGSU made numerous stops defensively in the first half, big plays offensively in the second, and had key moments in special teams in battling No. 25 Texas A&M neck and neck. The Aggies, though, held on late to edge the Falcons 26-20 in front of just under 100,000 fans at Kyle Field.
After falling 34-27 to then-No. 8 Penn State on Sept. 7, BGSU was one or two more big plays away from pulling off an upset as the Falcons, who faced ranked Associated Press opponents in back-to-back games for the first time, fell to 1-2.
