207 yards in win vs. CMU Bazelak completed 19 of 30 passes for 207 yards and one touchdown during Tuesday's 23-13 win against Central Michigan.

Impact Bazelak has led the Falcons to three straight conference wins, but the high margin of victories have kept some modest output for the quarterback. He still has amassed 2,022 passing yards with 11 touchdowns and four interceptions across nine games this year, and he should keep a high-volume of attempts as the Falcons take on Western Michigan this upcoming week.

Two touchdowns in blowout win Bazelak completed 17 of 27 passes for 171 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 41-26 win over Toledo. He also had five rushes for nine yards.

Impact Bazelak was relatively efficient, with two touchdowns by the end of the matchup to two different receivers. The starting quarterback wasn't tested much by the end of the matchup, as the team's passing game didn't have to be utilized as much as previous weeks. He'll get a bye week this upcoming week, and then return to action on Nov. 5 as the Falcons take on Central Michigan.

Impressive performance vs. Kent St Bazelak was 23-for-27 passing for 313 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 27-6 win over Kent State.

Impact Although he was originally questionable ahead of the matchup, Bazelak ended up seeing the field and arguably putting up his best game of the season. The Falcons did take on a miserably bad Kent State squad, but the quarterback still showcased flashy passing abilities throughout the matchup that will hopefully be channeled in the weeks to come.

Questionable vs. Kent State Bazelak (undisclosed) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's matchup with Kent State.

Impact Bazelak may have been limited by injury last week when he completed just eight passes for 88 yards against Northern Illinois. If the senior ultimately can't play, Lucian Anderson would likely get the start under center.

OCTOBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Minimal output in loss Bazelak completed 8 of 14 passes for 88 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 17-7 loss to Northern Illinois.

Impact Bazelak wasn't great in the Falcon's lackluster defeat, not even able to get to 100 passing yards. The senior quarterback has just one touchdown in since Bowling Green has opened conference play, which could lead to an eventual benching if he can't pick it up.

No tuddys in close win Bazelak completed 24 of 30 passes for 268 yards during Saturday's 27-20 win versus Akron.

Impact Bazelak didn't pass for any touchdowns against Akron, but he didn't need to as the rushing game was solid as he led the team to a win. The senior passer has thrown for more than 250 yards in every game since the season opener, and he should continue to see good passing volume as the year progresses, especially against conference opponents.

SEPTEMBER 29 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Relied on heavily in near win Bazelak was 20-for-36 passing for 250 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday's 26-20 loss against Texas A&M.

Impact Bazelak passed the ball 36 times but couldn't get past one passing touchdown as Bowling Green barely lost against ranked Texas A&M. The quarterback has seen a lot of opportunities in the past two weeks with two near upsets. He hasn't been amazing so far this year in terms of stats but with plenty of opportunities he could be especially against lesser opponents.

SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Solid day in near upset Bazelak completed 25 of 39 passes for 254 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions during Saturday's 34-27 loss to Penn State.

Impact Bazelak almost led his squad to an upset versus the Nittany Lions, but his pair of picks aided to an eventual comeback from Penn State. The quarterback should still keep the starting spot especially as he did see an uptick in yards and touchdowns in Week 2, and he'll take on Texas A&M in the upcoming week.

SEPTEMBER 7

Minimal production in blowout Bazelak was 15-for-22 passing for 168 yards during Thursday's 41-17 victory versus Fordham. He also had two rushes for 27 yards with one touchdown.

Impact The senior quarterback's performance against Fordham wasn't bad overall, but he was overshadowed by Terion Stewart's dominant three-touchdown rushing performance. Bazelak did undergo a leg surgery during the offseason which could have accounted for Bowling Green's overreliance on the run, and this game was a blowout which also shouldn't be an indicator for the entire season to come.

Ready ahead of season Bazelak (leg) stated he's feeling good in his post surgery recovery and is ready to go for the season.

Impact Bazelak underwent surgery for his right leg back in January to address a cartilage defect, and he missed spring practices up until late this summer to recover. The 6-foot-3 starting quarterback should be fully ready as August practices start up, so his recovery schedule is going as planned. He threw for 1,930 yards, 12 touchdowns and seven interceptions with the Falcons this past season and should be primed to start again under center as long as he can stay healthy in what will likely be his final collegiate season.
