The Northern Illinois Huskies survived a close game against the Buffalo Bulls this Saturday, escaping western New York with a 14-13 victory in a game that seemed like neither team wanted to win. Three missed field goals and zero points in the second half made for a very dramatic anti-MACtiony game. But what did we learn?
1. Nobody knows which quarterback will play...for any MAC team
We’ve already discussed how this is the year of the backup QB in the MAC and today was no different. The game started with Drew Anderson under center for Buffalo but, after an apparent shoulder injury at the end of the first half, he was sidelined and third stringer Kyle Vantrease had to come in for the remainder of the game.
