Clash of orange: Falcon Football faces Tennessee

Zak Smith

August 31, 2021

BGSU opens up the 2021 football season as they travel to Knoxville on Thursday to take on the Tennessee Volunteers. The Falcons, who are under Coach Scot Loefler for his third season, are coming off a less than ideal season in which the Falcons went 0-5 all in MAC play. The team will look to find an offensive identity under senior Matt McDonald, the second-year transfer from Boston College.

The Falcons and the Volunteers have met one other time in program history back in 2015. This matchup was an offensive showdown as the Volunteers walked away victorious, 59-30. This game featured current NFL superstar Alvin Kamara for the Vol’s, who rushed for a total of 144 yards on 15 touches for two touchdowns. The Falcons, meanwhile, were extremely formidable in the passing game where QB Matt Johnson went 27/49 for 424 yards and two touchdowns.

Though it should be a more conservative game, history suggests that there may be an offensive showdown in a Clash of Orange.
