BOWLING GREEN — Oddsmakers have assigned Bowling Green the biggest point spread in program history for this week’s game at No. 9 Notre Dame.
The Falcons are a whopping 45-point underdog for the game in South Bend, topping a 40 1/2-point spread during a 1997 visit to Ohio State, which also was ranked ninth at the time.
Bowling Green had a week off after a 62-20 loss on Sept. 21 to Kent State — which went 2-10 last season — and finds itself with its toughest game of the year in a road game against a top-10 opponent.
