Buffalo vs Bowling Green Game Preview

Why Buffalo Will Win

It hasn’t been consistent and it hasn’t always looked great, but Buffalo is 2-0 in the MAC by not committing penalties, holding up defensively, and owning the clock and the tempo.

Versatile, the Bulls were able to throw well against Eastern Michigan, and it got the big defensive stops in the ugly win over Miami University.

Bowling Green can’t stop anything on third downs – it’s the third-worst team in the country at it – and the D is allowing close to 500 yards per game, but …

Why Bowling Green Will Win

The passing game is working.

This still isn’t a dominant Falcon team, but unlike the past few years the offense is starting to look the part. The ground game is occasionally a factor, but Matt McDonald and the passing attack that’s not turning the ball over enough to matters is the difference.

Buffalo can be run on, but even more importantly, there’s no pass rush. Bowling Green will get time to throw.

What’s Going To Happen

Bowling Green has shown it can find ways to win when the defense comes up with with three takeaways – it’s 2-0 when it does, 0-3 when it doesn’t. Buffalo only turned it over more than twice in the loss to Coastal Carolina.

The Bulls will grind this out – the fewer mistakes will matter.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Buffalo vs Bowling Green Game Preview


Why Bowling Green Will Win

Is Bowling Green ever going to prove to the world that the 14-10 win over Minnesota wasn’t an all-timer of a fluke?

How did the team respond after what appeared to be a program-transforming win? Four straight losses including a blowout to Eastern Michigan and a 14-point defeat to Akron.

However, the passing game has finally started to work after years of struggling. The Falcons are getting past 200 yards with regularity, the pass defense has allowed fewer than 150 yards in five of the eight games, and the potential really is there to rise up and produce something strong.

But …

Why Buffalo Will Win

There’s a reason the pass defense stats are so great. The Bowling Green defense isn’t anything amazing.

Tennessee and Northern Illinois each ran for over 300 yards, Kent State ran for 262, and Minnesota should’ve ran for more than 182 it did in the clunker.

Buffalo doesn’t have the offense of the last few years, but the ground game has been fantastic over the last few weeks to go along with a more consistently solid passing attack.

The Bull defensive line is great at getting into the backfield, the offensive line is great at keeping defenses out of the backfield, and …

What’s Going To Happen

It’s a focus game for Buffalo.

Bowling Green is playing better than it has in the last few years, but UB has a way of struggling to put games away. It needed a minor miracle to beat a bad Ohio team, it beat Old Dominion by one, and the easiest win over an FBS team was against Akron.

This won’t be a breeze, but the Bulls will keep moving the chains in the second half to finally pull away.
