In a battle of two MAC teams looking for their first FBS win of the season, Buffalo (1-4, 1-0 MId-American Conference) prevailed in overtime over Akron (1-4, 0-1 Mid-American Conference) on a beautiful Saturday afternoon at InfoCision Stadium.
The first half saw some long, sustained scoring drives from both teams, but it turned into a defensive stalemate late. The Bulls defense made the plays they needed to in overtime to give the team a win.
After each team traded a couple of punts to start the game, Buffalo and Akron each put together some impressive drives.
Midway through the first, Akron found themselves pinned back on their own three yard line.
