From the Plain Dealer's Roger Brown's article today:
"Bowling Green football
head coach Gregg Brandon and several Falcons players will be in Cleveland Monday to promote BG's Sept. 2 game against Wisconsin at Cleveland Browns Stadium. Some interesting story lines about the BG-Wisconsin matchup:
The game will mark the debut of Bret Bilema -RD%>Bielema as Wisconsin head coach. Bielema is succeeding legendary Badgers head coach Barry Alvarez, who retired after last season to focus on duties as Wisconsin's athletic director.
Wisconsin senior offensive tackle Joe Thomas is considered a likely first-round pick in the 2007 NFL draft.
BG has several former area high-school standouts on its roster, including defensive back Loren Hargrove (Berea), defensive lineman Joe Schaefer (Benedictine), linebacker Scott Goodwin (Mentor), linebacker John Haneline (St. Ignatius) and defensive lineman Tommy Smith (Cleveland Heights).
Wisconsin, meanwhile, has local notables Bill Nagy (Hudson, offensive lineman), and defensive linemen Jason Chapman and Brandon Kelly (both from Bedford High). "
