BG 48
Maryland 42

I'm picking the upset this week, Maryland seems like a team that is beatable given that BG doesn't end up beating themselves. The defense will likely still struggle to stop the run as Maryland's OL is extremely talented. The offense should be able to make plays as the Maryland pass rush leaves much to be desired, however their secondary may be the best the Falcons see this season.

In the end, Maryland falls within the bottom half of the B1G which a program like BG should be able to defeat, even on the road.

Things to watch for:

Donovan Wilson and Matt Domer to see playing time and get carries in the run game.

Ronnie Moore being a factor this week as he is available for the entire game.

Roger Lewis and Robbie Rhodes to put up bigger numbers as Maryland will key on Dieter.

BG eclipses 500 yards of offense and Matt Johnson throws for over 400 yards once again.

I think that is a very fair prediction. Certainly, I'm a homer so I will go 49-42 Terps. I still believe this game comes down to last possession. I've watched the BG/TN game like 300 times, your offense is simply clock work. They all know their roles and play very disciplined. Johnson is the real deal, reminds me a lot like Heineke from ODU a few years back who is now in the pros.

For those who remember Cole Field House.....here is the future

Maryland - 49
BGSU - 41

Redzone FGs and penalties cost BG a win.

41-38 BG!
Train leaving...

BGSU 41
UMD 52

I'm also predicting Maryland runs for 500 yards. I just don't see Dino correcting the problem. On a positive note, I think Johnson will throw for 400+ yards.

Offense good again, defense bad again, special teams not quite as bad but still not good.

Bowling Green - 31
Maryland - 48

BGSU - 45

Maryland - 40

42-31 Falcons. Special teams is improved and the defense gets better.

Maryland 65 BGSU 35

BGSU - 45
MD - 38

MJ throws for 520 and 8 TD's...B1G officials take away 2 TD's because they refuse to believe a MAC QB could do that to a B1G defense.

Another tough task for a young defense. Maryland will get plenty of yards and score a bunch. I think we score just a tad more.

I think the D shows good improvement to get enough stops. I am not sold that MD's O has the caliber of talent UT does. I don't see MD's D slowing down FalconFast.

Falcons win 41-31.
