And then there were none.
Buffalo’s unblemished record was the last one in the MAC to finally crumble. The Bulls’ 4-0 mark fell to 4-1 in painful fashion, as Lance Leipold’s team was destroyed 42-13 by Army at UB Stadium.
Army’s triple option offense recorded 281 rushing yards and four touchdowns on Khalil Hodge and the Buffalo defense. The Black Knights didn’t create any turnovers, but they blocked a Buffalo field goal and returned it for an 80-yard touchdown during the second quarter. This 10-point swing would ultimately be the turning point Saturday.
In the second half, Army scored three unanswered touchdowns to seal the game and deliver the Bulls a loss for the second-straight year.
