The only element of Bowling Green\u2019s attack the Trojans must be concerned about containing is senior RB Willie Geter. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/go\/bovada\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mysportsbook.com\/mysb_banners\/sportsbook\/300x600\/300x600_ref.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Falcons tailback has the capability top 1,000 yards and double-digit TDs this season.<\/p>\n<p>For Troy\u2019s part, its offense will be led by new starting QB Jamie Hampton, but he has plenty of veteran help to nurse him along. Look for senior WR Jerrel Jernigan to be active in the game and throughout the season, along with the running duo of DuJuan Harris and Shawn Southward.<\/p>\n<p>Along with a veteran O-line led by senior C Tyler Clark, these elements provide security for the junior pivot Hampton, who actually won the starting job once already, in 2007.<\/p>\n<p>Troy\u2019s annually athletic defense shouldn\u2019t have trouble stymieing BGSU\u2019s inexperienced passing attack and will be able to key in on Geter.<\/p>\n<p>However, shutting down the Falcons\u2019 aerial attack might be a relative term \u2013 BGSU has a penchant for good quarterbacks and prolific chucking. Yet, the Falcons lost a large amount in the off-season due to graduation, including explosive QB Tyler Sheehan.<\/p>\n<p>Head coach Dave Clawson is also making the switch to more of a West Coast-style attack. This will probably lead to a drop in the passing, especially with Trojans sophomore CB Bryan Willis on the field, who gobbled up four INTs as a freshman in \u201909.<\/p>\n<p>There should be some points up on the board, but regardless it should indeed be a wake-up call in Alabama for the visitors this weekend.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bowling Green at Troy Trends:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bowling Green is 4-0-1 ATS in its last 5 games<br \/>\nBowling Green is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games<br \/>\nBowling Green is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games on the road<br \/>\nBowling Green is 11-2-1 ATS in its last 14 games on the road<br \/>\nTroy is 5-0 SU in its last 5 games at home<br \/>\nThe total has gone OVER in 7 of Troy&#8217;s last 8 games<br \/>\nTroy is 9-2 SU in its last 11 games<br \/>\nTroy is 8-2-1 ATS in its last 11 games<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bowling Green Falcons vs. Troy Trojans Pick <\/strong>\u2013 Troy and OVER.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/go\/bovada\">We stand behind one of our top FOOTBALL Sportsbooks &#8211; MYSportsbook.com &#8211; Sign Up For A Free Account Today, and know that they have ONE OF THE Best CREDIT CARD ACCEPTANCE rates in the industry.<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><em>James has been naming every player on the EA Sports NCAA video game rosters for half a decade now, he\u2019s finally putting his knowledge to better use writing for us here at CappersPicks.com.
