Ohio State fans curious about how a new wide receiver corp would fare in its first game of the season can breathe a bit easier. The NCAA, less than an hour before Bowling Green's opener against Ohio State, suspended starting cornerback Will Watson for the first six games of the season.
-#BGSU football: #Falcons announced CB Will Watson will sit out 1st 6 games this season. Big blow to DB position.

The outcome for Ohio State is a small blessing. The timing is certainly curious, and unfortunate for Bowling Green fans.
