Why is that? It shows that their defense can be moved upon by a [censored]ty MAC team at home. If Buffalo can score 24, no reason why we can't...

Buffalo's not as bad as they used to be and what if someone said, well if MSU scored 17 on OSU why can't we? |

1. An improved Buffalo still sucks (3-5 with two 30+ point losses)
2. Because the MSU offense didn't score 14 of those 17 points

Exactly, see what just looking at a final score can do in skewing actual results of a game? |

I looked at the game stats for Buffalo at Penn State. Buffalo scored all of their 24 points on offense, and had 339 yards passing and just short of 400 yards total offense against the vaunted Penn State defense.

And how many of the passing yards were against PSU's scrubs?
Again, I agree with you but just saying that you can't just look at a box score and get the entire picture.
If you think the team that played against Buffalo is going to show up against us, you're mistaken. |
