WHY?????? 4 downs for 1 yard and that again??? If we can’t get 1 yard going forward on 4 downs then we don’t deserve to score. Jesus
GO BG!!!

Just a laughable set of plays from the 1 yard line. The positive was no false start.

Unreal. Kinda hope those bonehead calls cost them the game. BG deserves to lose.

We had to kick the field goal. We’re going to lose this stupid game, unless the defense steps up big.

Defense got a huge stop.

Terion hurt while trying to kill clock.

BG ball, 4th down and 7 at 1:26 left. Would be a 44 yard FG.

BG went for it and didn’t get it. Ball State has it, down 3, with no timeouts.

Our kicker struggles at 40+, sadly.

I'm in favor of going for it more than not but I wouldn't trust this pass game to pick up 7+ yds vs a shot to make them need a TD. Although that largely depends on how confident you are in making the FG, I guess he's not real consistent at that length so it makes sense.

Ball State misses a 52 yard FG with no time left and BG holds on to win 24-21.

We’re 1 away from back to back bowls, fellas. Roll out the barrel.

I’ll take an ugly win over any kind of loss but damn, that was UGLY. Hope Stewart is okay, that didn’t look good with him coming off the field. He was clearly in pain.
GO BG!!!

Very ugly. Questionable play calls. Poor execution. The last three opponents will have success if they implement some sort of read option game. We already know Toledo does.
