We lost a lot of starters and have had terrible run defense all year. Buffalo knows this and is just running as much as possible, only passing enough to keep us quasi-honest.

BG has shot their selves in the foot a ton tonight. And they just got screwed on a pass interference that wasn't called that turned into an INT

IIRC BGs WR is on track to break the NCAA receptions in a single season record.

He's already over 1000 yards too.

Heck of a finish.

Been that way all year for us. BG cannot be counted out, though admittedly we've lost more close games than we've won. But a win is a win, and after Buffalo kept us out of the conference championship by coming from behind in the 4th to win at our place last year, we owed them this.

Quality 2 minute drill on that last drive. I wonder why we couldnt grasp his O. Did he dumb it down for BG, or is it the competition the 2 teams face?

I do believe it was mostly Phil Fulmer interfering.

I'm not convinced that it was entirely just Fulmer interfering directly. There seemed to have been a ton of pushback from the players about how hard the new system was, and how complicated the terminology was, and how they basically resented having to do anything different than they'd already been doing. It seems pretty clear that even if Clawson had had a completely free hand, a lot of the players would still have refused to buy into his system and put the work in.

Which goes to the culture of the program, of course. Which is on the head coach.

I just find it hard to believe that Clawson's system worked when he was at Richmond, and is obviously working at BG. He has a receiver who will probably break an NCAA receptions record. So why is it, that everywhere that Clawson is the Head Coach the players don't have a hard time picking it up?

We will definitely see in a few years, and I would put money that BG will consistently be winning the MAC, and CDC will be at a new school, probably in a BCS conference.
