BOWLING GREEN — A lot of factors have contributed to Bowling Green State University’s success on the football field this season.
What the Falcons have done defensively could be the biggest reason why they have a shot of bringing home a Mid-American Conference title.
BGSU (7-4, 6-1 MAC) has passed some stern tests from high-powered offenses, especially during its five-game winning streak, to put itself in a position to head to Detroit for the MAC title game. After some difficult years in which BGSU gave up anywhere from 30 to 45 points per game, the Falcons have put together their best defensive campaign in more than a decade.
