Louisiana has won three straight and four of their last five. In their first MAC-SBC Challenge game, the Ragin' Cajuns fell to Toledo in an 87-78 final score at Savage Arena.
The Falcons' first game as part of the MAC-SBC Challenge came on Nov. 11 when BGSU hosted Arkansas State. Bowling Green came away with an 81-75 victory in the game to move to 2-0 on the season. Now, the Falcons are winners in 12 of their last 13 games to post a 14-4 record including a 5-1 MAC standing. The record is the best through 18 games for Bowling Green since the 2001-02 campaign.
