Bulls strike first at the 3:@0 mark of the first quarter, James Starks 3Yd TD run. 7-0 Bulls.
Has anyone ever seen a 26-yard gain on a quarterback sneak before?
Nice defense, kittens.
Brandon Thermilius now takes it in from 3. 14-0 Buffalo with the first quarter nearly up.
Buffalo is currently my pick to win the MAC East, have at least a 7-6 record, thus earn themselves a bid to the International Bowl.
Now that I've posted this, watch them summarily self-destruct against Ohio U.
Let's go OU! Level out the playing field in the MAC East even more!
Why the Hell wouldn't you try to score on this drive? You've already blown a 14-point lead once this year. Go for the jugular!
Touchdown Ohio, but their extra point try was blocked and returned for 2 points for Buffalo. That makes 2 botched field goals and a blocked XP for ohio.
The score is now 26-13.

I thought it was one point for a returned extra point. Or maybe that's only during a 2 pt. conversion attempt.
Ohio scores on 4th down to make it a one score game. If the Bulls are good at anything, its ensuring the game comes down to the last minute. UGH.
Oh, and the extra point was missed according to ESPN game tracker. that leaves it a 7 point game. 26-19
Ohio kicks it out of bounds on the ensuing kickoff. Buffalo runs 3 plays before James Starks takes it to the house for 52 yards. But Buffalo's PAT is blocked. Score is 32-19.
I've never seen this much special teams specialness.
Will there be open kicker tryouts in Buffalo and Athens this week?

Principe is actually a respectable kicker. I haven't had much problem with him this year. He's 6 for 9 on field goals and 25 of 27 on PATs, both being blocked. I guess weather was a major factor to all the miscues on both sides.
I just caught the last few minutes of the game, and one of the announcers was not happy with one of the coaches (Solich?) being too busy to talk at halftime. Anyone have the specifics?
Thanks.

I didn't understand one thing Jim Donnan said the entire game.

LOL! what's even worse is that Jim Donnan doesn't understand a thing he said the entire game either!

So Ohio's officially done.
Loser of the BG-Kent game gets a fork stuck in them Saturday.
Looking ahead, there are some big MAC East games. Next week, Buffalo can put away Miami and Akron can maintain control with a win over Toledo.
But November 12 & 13 are shaping up to be D-Day for the East ...
November 12 - Temple @ Kent State
November 13 - Buffalo @ Akron
So you don't seem to think that 4-4 will be good enough for a first place tie in the East? I'm not sure...

This year, just about anything is possible.
