AKRON, Ohio -- Thomas Woodson was 21-of-29 passing for 291 yards and three touchdowns, and Akron beat Buffalo 21-20 on Saturday.
Woodson was pressured on his go-ahead touchdown pass but found fifth-year senior Kevin Gladney for a one-handed grab in the end zone to give Akron a one-point lead with 4:46 remaining in the game. It was Gladney's first touchdown of his career.
Buffalo answered with an 11-play, 45-yard drive but Tyree Jackson's pass on third-and-6 was incomplete and Adam Mitcheson missed a 46-yard field goal with 1:51 left.
