That's been weighing on my mind, too.

This is Falcon awful.

This team has apparently regressed 5 years. The coaching staff inherited a championship team and a top-10 defense, and we just played the worst half of football we've seen in a couple of years.

The offense is going to figure things out. But holy moly, we are helpless against these Western Kentucky receivers. It's men against toddlers out there.

395 WKU yards in the first half. I wonder how many games last year we had that for an entire game.

Haven't seen a defensive meltdown like that since the IU game...this ain't IU

#BGSU football: #Falcons offense has not been good, but defense has been dreadful. 4 WKU TD drives have covered 83, 88, 80, 75 yards.

We've been giving Dangerfield too much respect

When you're playing 10-15 yards OFF of the receivers, they are going to catch the ball, have time to make a move, and gain lots of yardage.

This scheme is terrible. They apparently have no faith in the DBs to play press coverage and keep the receivers from gaining so much yardage.

I am totally unimpressed by this coaching staff so far. No adjustments by the defense, and the offense doesn't seem to be able to come up with a creative play. Hey: let's run the same play on first down, over and over! WKU won't stop it, because we're too good!

Uh huh.
