UB is a 11.5 point favorite for homecoming weekend in Amherst. Great to have excitement and expectations for a win for all who are coming back. My initial inclination was way too high of a spread. This game I believe will be much closer. Heading into this past weekend my thoughts are Akron is closer to UB than the spread suggests. Then Miami-Ohio happened.
Unique year as Akron’s first game against Nebraska had to be cancelled. Akron beat up Morgan State and a big win over Northwestern. Akron coming to Buffalo with two straight losses. Tough loss and was up against Iowa State but unexpectedly a 41-17 loss to Miami-Ohio this past weekend.
