The Falcons are 2-0 in Mid-American Conference play for the first time since 2015 and 2-4 overall. They have also won back-to-back games for the first time under coach Eddie George. Sacramento State had taken a 3-0 lead early.
Dendy capped a nine-play drive in the second quarter with a 1-yard touchdown. Every play on that drive was a run, and he carried seven times. Jay Kastantin hit Joseph Saffold from 9 yards out with 4 seconds left in the half for a 17-3 lead. Dendy added a 30-yard score in the third quarter, and Kastantin ran in from 7 yards early in the fourth.
Then the defense got in on it. Dorian Pringle forced a Raiden Brown fumble, and D'kyah Banks returned it 27 yards for a touchdown to make it 38-3.
Bowling Green ran for 218 yards and three touchdowns. Kastantin threw for 116 yards and a score and added 50 yards on the ground. Jackson Sharman threw for 145 yards and a touchdown for Sacramento State, which fell to 1-5 overall and 0-3 in conference play. The Raiders host Ohio next Saturday, and Ball State visits the Falcons.
