This Weeks contest was important for Buffalo’s bowl hopes, but it was an absolute must win for Kent State. UB needed the win for their sixth of the year and Kent needed to avoid picking up their seventh loss.
Buffalo came out focused and with a solid game plan. Their offense was efficent, the defense was smothering, and for three quarters they were playing about their best game of the season.
But with about 11 minutes left in the fourth quarter a special team mistake and bad defensive series started an avalanche that ended up burring Buffalo in 24 4th quarter points.
