Bowling Green Falcons vs. Akron Zips: 5 Things Learned
Back to the Mid-American Newsfeed
Bowling Green has taken a major stride this season. Week-to-week, the Falcons are improving. The improvement did not translate to their record until this victory, but Bowling Green is slowly blossoming into form. Less than two months ago, this team looked lifeless, losing by 74 points to Memphis and shaping up to be one of the worst defenses in recent college football history. Since the loss, freshman James Morgan has taken over at quarterback and the team has improved defensively, forcing turnovers at an increased rate. The Falcon defense held Akron, 29.8 points per game, to a below-average 28 points—on the road.
