BOWLING GREEN — Bowling Green is hoping that Ohio State football fans will help it avoid getting the bill for a bunch of unsold tickets for the Falcons' bowl game in January.

The school is reaching out to fans traveling to New Orleans for the Bowl Championship Series national title game and asking them to think about going to see Bowling Green play against Tulsa the night before in nearby Mobile, Ala.

Bowling Green also is asking its supporters who can't make it to the GMAC Bowl to buy tickets anyway and donate them to underprivileged children in Mobile.

Many bowl games require schools to sell a set number of tickets and cover the costs of those tickets that aren't sold. Bowling Green agreed to sell about 7,500 tickets for the GMAC Bowl at $45 apiece.

Three years ago, the Falcons played in the game and sold just 1,500 tickets, and had to pay about $280,000 for unsold tickets.

I can't help but think if Troy got that bowl invite....
