For the second straight week, Bowling Green plays a winnable game. For a squad coming in with a 1-8 record this season, that’s no small fact.
Much like the Falcons, Central Michigan enters Saturday’s game in Mount Pleasant, Mich., on a six-game losing streak and winless in the Mid-American Conference.
But the Falcons faced struggling Kent State last week at Doyt Perry Stadium and lost 35-28. The good news for BG, it had extra time to prepare for the Chippewas; the game against the Golden Flashes was Oct. 30. We’ll find out Saturday if those extra days of preparation in the third game under interim coach Carl Pelini makes a difference for the Falcons.
