The Bowling Green Falcons become the next team in a line of financially motivated opponents from the Mid-America Conference to visit Notre Dame Stadium on Saturday. The hosts will contribute $1.1 million to the coffers of the Bowling Green Athletic Department for the privilege of securing an easy victory as they prepare for more substantive tests later this month against USC and Michigan. The 1-3 Falcons are riding a three-game losing streak by a combined score of 149-27. This trio of opponents included only one Power Five conference member. Remarkably, NBC will televise this game to the entire nation starting at 3:30 PM Eastern time.
