BG having no problems moving the ball so far, but having issues punching it in when they get to the red zone. Another FG and BG leads 6-0.

Need to start turning those into touchdowns and quit letting them hang around.

This coaching staff is mind boggling and this team is wildly inconsistent. It’s crazy to watch.

Well, this game looks very much like an Akron game type of an outing. We’re killing ourselves with back-breaking penalties. Nothing ever come easy when they play this way. Very frustrating and too close for comfort right now. BG “should” be up double digits right now. They’re leaving all kind of points out there on the field.
GO BG!!!

I know my money is very safe saying that.
Loeffler doesn’t call the plays and hasn’t for a few years now.
Well, whoever it is that he's letting call the plays is not very good. They keep banging their heads against the wall either throwing deeper balls or running the football and neither has been successful. On the other hand, most of the passes across the middle about 10 yards deep have been wide open and they've usually gotten pretty good yards after the catch. I'm not saying to abandon the run, but it's pretty clear CMU is keying on Stewart. Use the medium range passing game to open things up more.

They should be blowing this team off the field by now.

After playing a really good half, BG’s defense gives up a touchdown with 31 seconds to play in the 2nd quarter.

9-7 Falcons.

Not surprising at all. We’re flirting with disaster here.

This team is tough to watch and our qb is pretty terrible. I know people point to stats to say he’s good but just watch him play. He’s allergic to easy first downs, has terrible placement with the ball, is typically late with throws, stares down receivers and hangs them out to dry.

So, back to the conversation of does SL deserve to stay? I say no.

Defense comes up with a strip sack, offense scores a TD, Falcons lead 16-7.

I mean you are playing a team without a QB….kid literally can’t pass. They better win.

Kicking a field goal there was stupid.

How is this team in the driver seat to go to a MAC Championship?
