Why did they play on a Wednesday? I didn’t even realize that game was on. 

You were better off not knowing that it was on! Buffalo's defense was brutal, especially its run defense. It was a reprise of the Army game. 

 

On the positive side if you put things in perspective UB is having a terrific season. The most important aspect of this season is that the "program" is year by year getting better. It's evident that the talent base is getting wider.The number of legitimate pro prospects on the roster is increasing. I'm impressed with the receiver group and the OL group. 

 

I'm not as zealously invested in UB as PTR is so I can fairly say that I am more objective.(Few can challenge him of his knowledge about the program.) Without question the losses that they have sustained have exposed the imbalance on the roster between the offense and defense. Nevertheless, UB should be playing in the championship game in Detroit and be invited to a bowl game. When everything is tabulated the coach is steadily moving the program up the ranks. He has taken a program that was comatose and over time made it an entertaining and a success with the future looking much brighter. Assuming the HC stays with the program its fans should be very optimistic.

The game was not enjoyable from any standpoint, unless you are an Ohio supporter.  Was pretty clear it wasnt going to be competitive.  Whenever UB made a play in the 1st half that might get them rolling, it would be negated by a fumble, bad bounce, or penalty.  

 

 

Ohio is the real deal.  Also came in with an obvious mental edge.

When I say talented I mean a gifted athlete.

 

I have been to or watched / listened to every game since their inception back to D1 and he is hands down their actual only NFL prospect they ever had at QB. And that includes Willy and Licata 

 

As for Anderson , yes he was a very good passer and I hated to see him transfer to Richmond but this was always gonna be Tyrees team with Leipold 

 

Vantrease is no where near Tyrees or Anderson’s level at the moment

 

What UB does have is a very friendly offensive system which makes it players look good and puts them in good spots

 

Next year with KJ Osborne, Charlie Jones, Antionio Nunn and the stud RBs I still see a good year without AJ

 

I really like Charlie Jones as a dependable target for the next 3 years

I also have been a season ticket holder since the daeja of Cliff Scott and Craig Guest. I was only 11 but so what lol. The only qb that I can say unequivocally could have been a pro besides Tyree was Chad Salisbury. The stature of the 2 goes a long way. 

 

I wasn't saying Vantrese was on the level but he still could move the ball in this offense. Low you said it is a real friendly scheme.

 

I almost 100% agree with this post. And you may be right. I would like to see maybe even a less dynamic qb who can spread it all around. Jackson throws a nice deep ball but is a little too indecisive and too polar for my taste. Too hot and cold. What would you say? 3rd 4th found for him?

He is Super streaky. It really can be frustrating watching a kid who can be so hot and cold.

 

Anything is possible in regard to his draft position next season. Depending on how his sr campaign goes...

 

in a complete WTF holy **** MVP year he can maybe squeak into the top 2-3 rounds based on his size 

 

if he has another season like this... very streaky...but showing signs...

 

i still see him getting drafted but later like Round 5-7

As I said before. Still a great season. Gonna get a bowl game. Likely a berth in the MAC championship, assuming they don't throw up on themselves at Bowling Green next week. But forget getting ranked and forget a prestige bowl . 

 

After last night I'm kinda' concerned that UB can even be competitive in a MAC Championship and a Bowl game?  NIU is solid and whoever they play in a 3rd tier Bowl game will be pretty good.  That loss was so lopsided I feel like UB was exposed and shown to be a bit of a fraud with their 9-1 record.  We'll see.  If they really are good the Bowling Green game shouldn't even be close.  But let's remember, it's the MAC..  That Ohio team we saw last night barely beat Kent State 27-26.

that Oulette is a little monster, any chance he gets an invite to a camp?

 

that one arm push up into the endzone was all process.

 

 

 

It was crazy to see how many UB defenders bounced off that guy.  Either he was greased up with vaseline or he simply cannot be brought down on first contact.  He should be playing for Army.

[May Day 10]

He (Tyree) reminds me a bit of a poor-man's Kaepernick for Nevada.  He runs like a gazelle (and then fumbles inside the 5, lol).

So you think he stays another year

Yes 100%.

 

This team has been loading up for a while and this season has looked like a winner for a while

 

Before the season started , I had a feeling UB would have some kids names in The spotlight .. had a good amount on preseason lists

 

but yes, Tyree is a smart kid... if people around UB know he isn’t ready yet, I doubt he will jump early when he can stay and improve

I am 1000% on board with that. I just see a weaker qb class so he might want to strike while the iron is hot. KJ is going to be a bright spot next year. I am wondering what will come of TE. Mabry i's a senior right

maybe a change to FB will be in his future depending on his speed but he was all grit 

 

a true old school MAC back

 

he seemed kind of small for FB, I was thinking slot back.

Mabry is a RS JR fortunately and should be back and a key piece 

 

Tyree, KJ, Mabry, Nunn, Charlie Jones , Patterson, Marks, Reed, Hawkins. Good core coming back 

[PromoTheRobot]

If I'm Ohio coach Frank Solich, I call the BGSU coaching staff and offer them their Buffalo game plan. Seriously. Ohio needs Buffalo to lose next week.

Sure Ohio needs it but Buffalo was embarrassed yesterday and also needs it now

 

and BGSU doesn’t really have the weapons that Ohio does to do that fortunately

He’s listed at like 5’9 210

Anything can happen in the MAC with MACtion for sure but I’ve seen BGSU a few times his year and if the team shows up they should handle business 

 

Wild season

I still think it's a pretty big game for a number of reasons. First off- ESPN2.  It's national and a good showing is always great for recruiting.  Also, players will want to showcase their talents for the next level on a national stage.  With a win at Ohio, BG and in the MAC championship, that might position UB for a bigger Bowl game against a P-5 second tier team.  Lose to Ohio and they will probably be slotted in for the Dollar General or Potato Bowl or whatever.

Win and it takes the "anything can happen (lose)" possibility off the table vs. Bowling Green.  

 

I remember on the Coach sitcom when Minnesota State got invited to the popcorn bowl and giant bags of popcorn were left in their rooms. That was hilarious.

UB is getting their assess kicked in. Their defense is being repeatedly gashed by Ohio. The officials have nothing to do with Ohio brutalizing them. Stop making lame excuses!

 

Very disappointing performance!

[PromoTheRobot]

John C loves to point out the officiating isn't why UB lost, which is true. But note Ohio didn't get a single penalty call.

Some people just love to focus on penalties, etc,,  Clearly this was a game that penalties didn't matter one bit.  I didn't look at the box score but I'm guessing Ohio got nearly 700 yards of offense. Did the UB defense even cause one negative play for Ohio?  it was incredible.  That was such an a$$-kicking that it was like watching Alabama demolish Gardner-Webb or something.   The shine is off the season for me.  Really good teams don't get beaten down like that.
