Falcons are 3-0 and have not given up a goal yet this season. 2-0 over IUPUI to open the year on 8/29 and then we thrashed Findlay 8-0 on 9/2. Opened the Duquesne Invitational in Pittsburgh, beating Niagara, 4-0. BG will play Duquesne Sunday and return home to play Northern Kentucky on 9/12. Matches against Michigan, Mich State and Ohio State are still on the sked.
It wasn't that long ago this team went 0-19 under Fred Thompson and was probably the worst team in the nation. Has the soccer program turned the corner back to the glory days? Coach Nichols has done a fantastic job in his first 5 years and this year he is off to an excellent start. Maybe this is the year we can challenge Akron for the MAC>
Thinking of going to the match at Cleveland State on 10/7...

Falcons move to 6-1 with a 3-1 win over EIU Friday night at Cochrane Stadium.
BiG match with Sparty at Cochrane Wed night at 7. Sparty comes in #16 in the nation. I think Jake and I are gonna make the Cleveland State match in CTown on 10/7. This team has a legitimate shot at the MAC title this season and I'm freakin tired of Akron winning it. We have outscored our opponents 22-5 this year. Still have a match with ohio state as well.
GO FALCONS!!!!!

Friggin Sparty scores with a little over 10 min left in the 2nd half and beats BG, 1-0. BG now 6-2 and #16 MSU is now 5-1-1. BG hits the road to play at St. Bonaventure Sunday. MSU now leads the all time series 20-16 with a handful of ties. Been a very even series over the years.
GO BG

They're having a great year, and they're also fun to watch. I've been to all of the home games so far, and there's been a very good atmosphere at Cochrane Stadium. Their next home game is next Saturday, the 11th, against Akron. That should be a fun one, as Akron's been the class of the MAC for quite some time now.
