BOWLING GREEN — Much of Bowling Green’s success in 2022 has gone hand in hand with the fact that the Falcons, unlike in previous seasons, are an older team.
The players who have made the Falcons what they are this season, generally speaking, are veterans. Quarterback Matt McDonald is a senior. Center Jakari Robinson is a senior. Wide receivers Odieu Hiliare and CJ Lewis are seniors, as are defensive linemen Karl Brooks and Walter Haire.
The downside of Bowling Green having a lot of collegiate miles on its collective odometer, however, is that such a seasoned team requires more careful recovery.
