The team you should know about but probably don't: Bowling Green

The high-powered Falcons are 7-2. They started the season 2-2, with losses at Tennessee and Memphis (a shootout they lost 44-41) followed by a pair of Big Ten wins at Maryland and Purdue. Since then, they are 5-0 in the MAC and in the driver's seat in the East Division, holding down a two-game lead in the division with three games remaining, including cross-division showdowns with West-leader Western Michigan (Wednesday, 8 p.m. ET, ESPN2) and against just-dropped-from-top-25 Toledo one week later. QB Matt Johnson has already thrown for 3,686 yards and 33 TDs, both tops in the nation, with a wicked completion rate of 70.5 percent (all while getting sacked a whopping 25 times). The BGSU offense is second in the nation in total yards (5,343), tops in passing (3,872), passing yards per game (430.2) and fifth in points per game (45.9). Dino Babers is a guy who you might not know but is likely to be receiving calls from at least a couple of the ever-increasing number of schools looking for a new head coach. Oh, by the way, their mascot is also a better dancer than your mascot.

Nice.

Agreed. It was tough sitting by and listening to all the praise tsun got for the first half of the season. Well, they don't give trophies for being ranked through 6-7 games. I know our cats heard it all and, IMO, are so focused on closing strong.

The rewards are coming...just keep working hard and win the next game.
