The Buffalo Bulls head home to host the Holy Cross Crusaders. A casual fan may look at the game notes and see Buffalo has an FCS opponent as their home opener, but it should be stated the Crusaders are not your typical FCS pushover.
Holy Cross returns 16 All-Patriot League players from 2021 and is ranked #15 in the FCS. The Crusaders won their first-ever FCS playoff game last season on a 35-yard touchdown pass with 14 seconds left in the game.
The Bulls acquired more players through the transfer portal than any other MAC team this offseason, including quarterback Cole Snyder.
