The Bowling Green State University football team dropped a 55-10 decision Saturday afternoon to West Virginia inside Milan Puskar Stadium.
Alex Carder used both his arm and his legs to lift host Western Michigan University to a 45-21 win over the Bowling Green State University football team Saturday afternoon (Oct. 8). The Mid-American Conference game was held at Waldo Stadium.
The Falcons fumbled the opening kickoff, but the BGSU defense held strong, holding WVU to a 30-yard field goal. On the ensuing kickoff BooBoo Gates went 77 yards, setting up an 18-yard touchdown pass from Matt Schilz to Ray Hutson for an early 7-3 BG lead. West Virginia went three-and-out on their next drive and the Falcons answered with an 11-play drive, ending on a 21-yard field goal by Steven Stein.
Carder threw for 212 yards and three touchdowns, and also ran for a career-high 95 yards and another score. He completed 18 passes in 26 attempts on the day. Jordan White had 12 receptions for 156 yards, and caught two of Carder’s three TD tosses.
The Mountaineers scored the next 52 points to capture the 55-10 victory.
As a team, the Broncos rolled up 578 yards of total offense, including 351 on the ground. The Falcons’ 381 total yards included 263 threw the air and 118 on the ground.
