First Meeting


> There was little drama to the Falcons 77-10 loss at Ohio State in Week One but plenty of drama for BGSU last Saturday. The Falcons barely held on to defeat North Dakota 27-26. Middle Tennessee, meanwhile, managed to show some positive signs in a loss at Vanderbilt.

Bowling Green Falcons (1-1, 0-0 MAC)
> The Falcons started out strong Saturday, jumping off to 14-0 lead in the first quarter. North Dakota, however, fought it's way back. A touchdown with 13 seconds remaining in the game gave UND a chance to tie or go for the win. It chose the latter, and the two-point try failed.  
> BGSU quarterback James Knapke completed 23 of 40 passes for 315 yards with three TDs and two interceptions against the Hawks.
Josh Cleveland (11/44 yds) and Fred Coppet (13/43 yards) led a 90-yard rushing attack.
> Sophomore receiver Scott Miller (5-10, 160) had a big day, catching five passes for 161 yards and three touchdowns versus UND. 

Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders (1-1, 0-0 C-USA)
> MTSU started the year by blasting Alabama A&M 55-0. The Blue Raiders rolled up 681 yards while holding AAMU to a total of 146 yards.
> Middle Tennessee fell to Vanderbilt last week, 47-24. A 28-point second quarter broke the game open for Vandy. 
> MTSU averaged 4.6 ypc while picking up 96 yards on the ground against the Commodores. I'Tavius Mathers stepped off 65 yards on 13 carries.
> The MTSU passing game produced 399 yards and three touchdowns, although the Blue Raiders averaged 6.1 yards per completion.
