BG and UB about as even as it gets except...

Post by Falconfreak90 »

The turnover ratio and punt game. BG's TO ratio is bad at -12 (14-26) and UB's is -3 (11-14). Both teams average 365-390 yards offense and give up 385-410 a game. Both have 217 first downs for the season. BG has 55 penalties, UB 57. BG has a BiG edge in the punting game with Schmiedebusch averaging a killer 45.4 to UB's 38.6 Looks like this one could come down to who best takes care of the ball and field position battle....and who simply wants it more. Damn I wanna see the W flag flying at the Doyt Sat evening...

We love you Freak but I think you're wrong on one thing - there ain't no way BG gives up 385-410 points a game :supz:

But you did NOT alter the previous modifier so the nearly all readers would correctly infer that the modifier stood and would understand you meant YPG. How someone could infer that you meant "points" when "points" aren't mentioned is beyond me. Even UT grads get that. :supz:

Oops. #-o I misread and was thinking offensively - and the offense (usually) scores your points.

I just ignored the post from factman's favorite fan :lol:

Not sure why, but I feel like we'll win this game easily. The only reason I wouldn't fell real confident is because it is a road game. Buffalo is another bad team in a bad MAC. If we lose it will be because the team has packed it in.

I hope you're right...we're driving 3 1/2 hours for the game. Buffalo did beat Ohio by 1 and lost to NIU by 1. They are capable of playing very well. On paper, it's pretty even.

mac-sports.com has the link to the stream posted. Will probably be the scoreboard camera with Buffalo's radio announcers, but I'll take it. GO BG!

I stand corrected... it's an actual broadcast! But with UB announcers. Still... GO BG! :mrgreen:

nice pre-game interview (by Todd W.) with Jack Harbaugh and the influence Doyt P. had on him and how those things have been passed to his sons.

Pick 6. This wind doesn't help our offense. If we have to punt in the 2nd quarter, Schmeidebusch might kick one 400 yards.
