While the BG football team sits at 4-5 on the season, it has made noticeable strides in 2011.
Statistically, the Falcons have been much improved off a disastrous 2010 campaign. Through nine games, BG already has more wins than it did in all of 2010.
While the Falcons clearly aren’t where they want to be as a team yet, they have showed improvements throughout their overall game.
Offensively, the Falcons are averaging only just two more points per game than they did last year. However, they have not been as inept at moving the ball, as they have put up more than 100 yards more per game in 2011 as they did last season.
On the defensive side of the ball, the Falcons have been inconsistent, but have still shown improvements. On average, they are giving up one touchdown fewer per game, and 43 yards per game fewer than they did in 2010.
