Five Things Learned: NIU Huskies at Bowling Green Falcons
The Bowling Green Falcons got outmatched yesterday, falling 48-17 to the Northern Illinois Huskies.
NIU racked up 577 yards of total offense and forced five turnovers in the big win while the Falcons only managed 25 minutes of possession and 367 yards.
So what did we take away from the game?
1. Bowling Green’s ground game has gotten a lot better
Andrew Clair has shown these last few weeks that, just because he’s a freshman, it doesn’t mean he can’t play at a very high level. Against the Huskies he was able to get 108 yards on 15 rushes...that number could have been higher as a 35-yard scamper was erased when he was called for an offensive face-mask penalty.
