Buffalo vs Ohio Prediction
Ohio is the better team that’s closing in on a MAC Championship berth, but this is a lot of points for a subpar team overall. Ohio is 85th in scoring offense and has issues stopping the run. Buffalo is awful offensively and has lost 3 of its last 4 games, but it’s also a win away from clinching a bowl berth. It’s also senior night for a Buffalo team that has 30 seniors. Ohio has failed to cover 5 of its last 8 games as a favorite, and has outright lost once against Ball State. Ohio is 1-4 SU on the road this season. I’ll grab the free touchdown with Buffalo.
