If any of you want to watch this game - better hurry up. Fog is rolling in - the announcers have lost direct sight of the field. At this rate, the TV coverage may have to end before the middle of the fourth quarter.

BG just lost a kickoff in the fog....

First the Mud Bowl four years ago - now this. BG is cursed...

If I knew they were playing tonight I might have gone. I might be able to make it by the 10 minute mark and get a good seat.

I watched a bit earlier but I'm back to watching now. This is too funny. A lot of schools here in NW Ohio were delayed/cancelled today due to fog this AM.

I attended this game last night, was seated on east side 9 rows up from field, 50 yd line...and could not see the other side bleachers.....it was that foggy.....We would sit there., see the QB's throw the ball, lose site of it, then have to ask...was it caught?..lol..unreal...and to top it off....when fog did breifly let up, BG scored, they shot the cannon off and "presto" smoke so thick you could not see the players....

Did the touchdown you are talking about happen 3 times because of reviews? They shot the cannon off every time.

yep........lol...had to laugh after BG apparently scored, cannon would go off then you would hear offical.. "This Play Is Under Reveiw"....each and everytime until the 3rd try...( I actually thought they got in the 2nd time but hell couldn't see across the field so what do I know)

I was very impressed with the way BG didn't give up. I thought for sure when they were down 14 and Miami got the ball on that BG drop/Miami INT it was gonna be a blowout.

That said, I think BG is in serious trouble. That stadium blows, don't think they have anyone in the NFL. That bowl game last year helped their recruiting but I think it's going to take a big hit this season.

QB sneak wasn't close. He was down at the 1 yard line but kept driving his feet until he got in. I don't blame the official for not seeing it through the fog though.

Stadium blows? They just added permanent seating on the one end and added some luxury boxes too. I think they have a new weight room and all that stuff too.

Oh, that's unfortunate for BG then. I haven't been there since they renovated/added on. Is the Stroh Center done?

The media portion of BG is way better the Toledo, I can tell you that first hand. Toledo has a bunch of 12 inch TVs from the 90s in their press box. Its pathetic.

About the only thing that can help the look of the Bowling Green campus......a blanket of fog.

What a dump.
