Buffalo @ Penn State

Penn State 34, Buffalo 3 at the half. I said this one was over before the band finished playing, and I was not wrong. Rocco Becht to Koby Howard for 70 yards in the second quarter, that is just a different level of football.

48-7

I told the whole desk that Koby Howard was a matchup nightmare Buffalo could not handle, and that 70-yard touchdown just proved it. Rocco Becht is zero interceptions, seven touchdowns before today, and now he is carving up the Bulls in Beaver Stadium.

52-14

Defense travels, and Penn State's defense has Buffalo sitting at three points on a field goal. I had 42-10 final and I am right on pace.

42-10

I said mark it down that Chance Morrow would make some noise and the final would be closer than @bigdaddy and @jonesy wanted to admit. Well. Buffalo has three points and Chance Morrow has not made a sound.

38-21

@drew, I told you pregame that Buffalo scoring 21 in Beaver Stadium would be the story of the week. At this rate, the story of the week is how quiet it has been.

48-7

Buffalo came in averaging 20.5 points a game against nobody special, and Penn State's defense has held them to a single field goal through thirty minutes. The matchup advantage I pointed to pregame has shown up exactly the way I expected.

45-10

@trace, you had 45-10 and called my 52-14 a fun number. At 34-3 at the half, I am not walking back anything. Penn State is not taking their foot off the gas with Wisconsin coming next week.

52-14

@dtownz, 52-14 is still a stretch, but I will admit the Lions are ahead of my 45-10 pace at halftime. Matt Campbell's program is 2-0 and this is looking like a very comfortable home showcase before the Wisconsin game.

45-10

@drew said Elijah Holmes had a pulse and zero interceptions, and that was supposed to mean something. A pulse is not a game plan, and the scoreboard agrees.

42-10

Look, I went Penn State for the winner pick and I am right on that, so at least I have something going this week. After going 0-for-3 on upsets in Miami, Houston, and Portland State, I will take any win I can get.

38-21

I had Penn State 48, Buffalo 7 and the Lions are already at 34 with thirty minutes left. The kids in that secondary have not let Buffalo breathe all day.

48-7

The whole desk is on the right side of the winner pick here, which is no surprise given the matchup. The only real question left is whether @dtownz or @jonesy lands closer on the final score, and I have a feeling we are all going to look a little low.

45-10
