Falcons vs Zips

Post by gmartin »

Akron in a free fall. Akron still favored by 11. If BG doesn't turn the ball over they win.

My prediction: Zips 35 Falcons 34

Jinks goes for 2 and the win but we just can't pull it off.

I think it's going to be a very poorly played game.

Zips 24
Falcons 10

Last night the weather would have affected the outcome. I think it will be a good game, on par of the Toledo game.

On a side note, too bad the Rockets - Huskies game couldn't be played at Wrigley. Cubs fans would turn out just to get into stadium. Could have been a sell out.

BG takes its opening drive right down the field…Then throws an interception inside the 10. ](*,) BG leads the nation in ints thrown.

It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

Is it just me or did our defense allow 0 FDs in the first quarter? Baby steps.

Wow. That drive was what I've been waiting for all season from the offensive line. And Wilson! I never knew that guy had wheels. Keep it up, guys.

It felt awfully good capitalizing on a team's mistake the way so many have done to us this year. Keep playing well.

I feel like the announcers are trying their best not to call Bowden inconsiderate of his players' health the way he is playing an injured QB. Like Brady Hoke playing a clearly concussed Shane Morris in 2014.

Pretty decent first half of play for BG, even with all the squandered opportunities we had to start the game with outstanding field position and came away with nothing. The big question now is can this team finish and finally put together two good halves to finally get a win???
GO BG!!!

As an aside: I really like how much Jinks goes for it on fourth down. The math says you often should, and he does.
