BOWLING GREEN — The Bowling Green State University football team is “fighting youth and strength” within its running game.
That thought came from head coach Scot Loeffler following their defeat last Saturday against South Alabama, in which the BGSU offensive line and running backs struggled to move the ball on the ground for the second week in a row.
“When you run the ball, you have 80-something plays, and you keep the defense off the field, and you score,” Loeffler said. “Whenever you’re picking and hunting, and you can’t run the ball, and you’re dibbling and dabbling to try to find creative ways to move the football and you can’t run, it’s tough.
