BGSU football holds off Ball State for 3rd straight win

BOWLING GREEN — Bowling Green State University’s football team showed on Wednesday that it can pull out a narrow win that was decided in the final seconds.

The Falcons made a couple of huge plays in the passing game in the fourth quarter and held strong defensively with Ball State on the verge of tying the game or taking the lead.

A 52-yard field-goal attempt from Ball State’s Jackson Courville as time expired came up short as BGSU held on for a 24-21 Mid-American Conference victory at Doyt Perry Stadium.

“We have heart. We never give up,” BGSU running back Ta’ron Keith said.
