Football people are fond of "the grind" as a byword for the sport's laborious churn. Nowhere is that churn more pronounced than in fall camp, as the sweltering August days seem to bleed into one another. Bowling Green's grind, like every team's, is begin ning to inch toward a close. The season opener at UCLA looms just over two weeks away. And several Falcons have begun to assert themselves in practice, separating themselves from the rest of the flock at a critical juncture in the run-up to Sept. 3. "The first guy I gotta mention is Blaine Spires," outside linebackers coach Sammy Lawanson said last week. "He's really taken his game to the next level." Spires is a junior from Youngstown entering his third year with Bowling Green. As a freshman in 2020, h e recorded 11 total tackles in five games; in 2021 he bumped that total up to 30 total tackles in 10 games.Along with defensive lineman Karl Brooks, Spires was involved in one of the most critical defensive stops of the 2021 season. Early in the f ourth quarter against Ohio, the two players stacked up Bobcats quarterback Armani Rogers in the end zone for a safety. The points proved essential in a 21-10 Falcons win. "He's just an all-around complete player who has really studied to get better this offseason," Lawanson said. "He's put a lot of good work in the weight room, and it's really showing on the field." - Idaho Statesman
