Bowling Green (0-1) at Nebraska (1-0) — Game Preview
Bowling Green travels to Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Nebraska carrying an 0-1 record as it faces a Nebraska squad that opened its season at 1-0. The Cornhuskers look to move to 2-0 defending their home field, while the Falcons try to shake off an opening-week loss on the road.
Quarterback Anthony Colandrea has been sharp early for Nebraska, completing 18 of 32 passes for 275 yards and three touchdowns, and he can lean on a run game that already has traction behind Jamal Rule, who piled up 122 yards and two touchdowns on just 15 carries.
Bowling Green counters with its own steady hand under center in Jay Kastantin, who went 24 of 30 for 262 yards, with Austyn Dendy providing a complementary ground threat after a 60-yard, one-touchdown effort on 15 carries. Up front, the pass rush numbers are even so far, with Nebraska’s Riley Van Poppel and Bowling Green’s Kade Kostus each recording a sack in their respective openers.

Bowling Green Falcons
Jay Kastantin — QB. He completed 24 of 30 passes for 262 yards in the season opener, a sharp showing that kept the Falcons’ offense on schedule through the air. His accuracy gives Bowling Green a chance to stay competitive against a Big Ten defense.
Rushing the ball 15 times for 60 yards and a touchdown, Austyn Dendy gives the Falcons a complementary ground game to pair with Kastantin’s passing. He’s the back Bowling Green will lean on to control tempo on the road.
On the other side of the ball, Kade Kostus recorded a sack in the opener, giving the Falcons’ defensive line a disruptive presence up front. His ability to get after the quarterback will matter against a Nebraska offense that’s found its rhythm early.
Nebraska Cornhuskers
Anthony Colandrea — QB. He opened the season by completing 18 of 32 passes for 275 yards and three touchdowns, putting the Cornhuskers offense ahead of schedule from the jump. That kind of efficiency has Nebraska positioned to build on its 1-0 start at home.
Jamal Rule — RB. Fifteen carries turned into 122 yards and two touchdowns in his season debut, a workload that suggests Nebraska will keep leaning on him. He gives the Cornhuskers a physical complement to Colandrea’s arm.
A sack in the opener already has Riley Van Poppel making his presence felt up front for Nebraska. The defensive lineman’s early production gives the Cornhuskers a pass-rush answer as they defend home turf.
