BOWLING GREEN — Bowling Green State University’s football team will be returning to a familiar place to face a relatively familiar opponent for its bowl game.
The Falcons will square off with Minnesota in the Quick Lane Bowl at 2 p.m. Dec. 26 at Ford Field in Detroit. The game will be nationally televised on ESPN.
The Quick Lane Bowl will be a rematch of an early-season nonconference game in 2021 when BGSU stunned Minnesota 14-10 on the road as 31-point underdogs. It snapped the Golden Gophers’ streak of 21 straight wins against nonconference opponents, which was the longest active streak in the country at the time.
