65yd TD #8 for Patterson. 32/385!!! Still 7 minutes to play.

 

It is insanity!! 103 carries for 896 yards and 16 TDs...in 4 games!!!

[CSBill]

The Coach should be fired! Takes him out with a chance to set an all/time record. At least discipline him.

I hate that Leipold doesn’t go for records when they’re in reach. He did something like that before with Patterson. Want to say it was his 296 game in ‘19. He easily could have had 300+ that day.

 

However, the way he’s running and the line is blocking he will prob have it next week.

Are you serious

 

Leipold did everything he could to get Patterson the record

 

He would have needed every yard on that last drive and he ran him into the ground

 

I've had season tickets since year one at UB and I couldn't be more proud of Lance, Jarrett, and this team

Let's dream big. Mac champs, get ranked, undefeated going into a bowl game against a P5 program.

It's really a shame that this is a Covid era resulting in empty stands. The Bulls have recently started to be good and entertaining with less than a robust fan support. I'm sure that this year's team would have generated community support with plenty of fans in the stands. Leopold has done a terrific job in not only having good teams but also building a strong program. You got to be happy for the school and program.

But on the other hand every game has been on national TV. If the local media let people know about this they'd get on board. I mean we had Khalil Mack and it wasn't until the middle of his senior year did UB get any notice

Today's game was on a weekend. But what has promoted the program and the MAC is being on TV during the week days, usually Monday. The attendance for UB up to this point has not been too good. I just think that if this was a normal year this team would be getting a lot more fans in the stands and attention from the local media. However, the Bulls and their program have done a terrific job under very challenging circumstances. They deserve a lot of credit.

UB has led the mac in attendance I think in three out of the last four seasons. They draw well above the average for a Mac crowd

I say it every time, but I really wish they didnt have a horrible venue

A record slashing skill position player makes that possible

I'm not sure that is saying much. I'm surprised that it wasn't doing better because western NY is a sports region and the ticket prices at the games are relatively cheap. What is disappointing is that the student attendance isn't too good. That might be due to week night games. I don't have the exact figures so I'm making my judgment from what I see on TV.

There's just a difference between college and pro sports towns

 

It doesn't mean that UB can't be successful, and can't grow their brand

 

But their fan base is what it is. And their student section has definitely been improved over the years

Everything he could... Are YOU serious?
 

He pulled him on the 20 and Marks scored two plays later. You’re acting like he needed 90 yards and was winded. He needed 18, we were on the 20 and he was fine.

He was fed the whole game. He was stiff arming three guys on the last drive.. he needed some wind. He could have got 18 more yards on any of his other carries

 

In your mind he was fine. According to the coach he needed a break. I guarantee you Patterson's not complaining. Marks scored because he was fresh

 

And the Mac record books are starting to get littered with University at Buffalo players

Are you trying to slight MAC football? It's division 1 football in America

 

Every single one on that field is a supreme football player, and went further than 99% of everybody

Don't know what's more amazing, 409 yards/8 TDs or the Las Vegas over/under at 111.
