  1. It is sad to think of Tyree's situation. He really did need at least another year to show better decision making and accuracy, but I'm guessing he saw some of his best receivers leaving and had no confidence that his draft stock was going to increase beyond where it was last year. It was a big mistake and now he's paying the price. 

    The real head scratcher for me though is Anthony Johnson. I thought he was the best receiver we ever had and I can't figure out how he isn't on an NFL team right now. Tyree would throw him bullets that were off the mark and he always came down with the ball. He has decent size, he's fast (enough), has tremendous hands, and gained yardage after the catch. The Bucs didn't even give him a chance.

  2. We were committed to paying over $800k a few weeks ago to Nate Oats and now we’re paying $300k to Whitesell? This is a colossal step back in the public perception over whether or not we’re committed to this program. 

    Still, I don’t hate the hire and I hope he maintains the style we have grown to enjoy. Good luck, Coach. 

  3. I’m sorry but how the hell was ButlerDad on an advisory committee for this university? He seems to only be here to bash any suggestion that UB, the largest and most comprehensive state university in arguably the most powerful state in the country, could possibly do better than playing in a conference with a bunch of 2nd tier Ohio schools and directional Michigan’s. I encourage everyone to always aim higher and ignore outside opinions like this. It may be far fetched and down the road but AAC is certainly not impossible by any stretch of the imagination.

  4. Interesting response by Goodman. Either way, I stand by my shooting remark. As amazing a night this is to have a win over a top-15 team, I honestly think we could've won easily in regular time had we just figured out a way to hit a few wide open 3's. We were 3-22 from 3 at the time of that post.

    Who cares though! Amaazing win tonight. I love this team! I woke my 16 month old screaming at the television here in Maine! These guys are all creating history for all of us.

     

    Cheers, UBrothers!

  5. We were told that the city of Buffalo has enough room to support UB and the Bills. There's absolutely no reason why we shouldn't expect a large crowd for a 7-1 football team competing for a Championship. Put your money where your mouth is Buffalo and fill the stadium. We need this game to stay atop the East.

  6. We've had 4 years of playoff football and 1 MAC team made the cut in that time. That means 25% of the time a MAC school has been the G5 representative. I don't think it's far fetched at all for our goal every year to be a NY6 bowl. Nobody cares about an 8-win MAC school, including your beloved Buffalonians. They only showed up for the Army game because for the first time ever something bigger was potentially on the line. 

    I'm happy this team is winning. This is still looking like the best year ever for UB football, but the complete domination by Army was disheartening. We couldn't plug A-gaps the entire game on the FB dive. The announcer said at one point they had 6 yards a carry on first down. That's just pathetic given the experience of our defense. This team had the chance to finally get someone outside of WNY to pay attention to them and they fell flat on their faces. If they just found a way to make it competitive then maybe they would have a shot at clawing their way back into some national recognition. Instead, I doubt anyone talks about us the rest of the year.

    Let's hope it motivates them going forward. The MAC is lousy this year and the opportunity is still there to at least win this conference. See you all in Detroit.

    They are spaced out over 30 days so we would have to pay $5.  I think ESPN gives you a 30 day free trial.

    35 days apart. How convenient for ESPN with their 30 day free trial.

    Is anyone willing to do the research to determine which Streaming service (hulu tv, sling tv, DirectTV Now, etc...) carries the most UB games this season?
