Bowling Green, Ohio - Morehead State, 10-11, will play host to Bowling Green in a 2007 O'Reilly Auto Parts/ ESPNU BracketBusters pool game on Feb. 17. Tip-off for the contest is at 5:15 p.m. This will be the sixth meeting between the two institutions and first since December 14, 1985.
"The great thing about this is that it always gives us two quality non-conference opponents each year," said BGSU Coach Dan Dakich.
This is the fifth year of the event and BGSU has a 5-3 record in BracketBuster related games. This year, the Falcons won at Wright State, 59-56, in a return game from the BracketBuster last season. BGSU also has had home and home series' with Illinois-Chicago, Youngstown State and Arkansas-Little Rock because of the event.
This will be the second game for the Falcons this season against an Ohio Valley Conference foe. BGSU topped Jacksonville State, 77-69, at the UW-Green Bay Tournament earlier this year.
