The game has featured incredible performances by future NFL standouts LaDanian Tomlinson, Byron Leftwich and Ben Roethlisberger among others.

In the 2024 edition Arkansas State secured a hard-fought 38-31 victory over Bowling Green in a game filled with highlight-reel moments, including fake punts for touchdowns and blocked field goals. The Falcons’ perfectly executed fake punt generated a viral media moment that remains a centerpiece in season recap coverage.

Despite the loss, Bowling Green tight end Harold Fannin Jr. earned Game MVP honors with a standout performance—17 receptions for 213 yards and a touchdown. During the game, Fannin made NCAA history setting the FBS single-season record for receiving yards by a tight end with 117 catches for 1,555 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Through 26 games, the teams have combined for 1,657 total points, an average of 63.7 points per game.
