Post Game Meal - Buffalo 42, Miami 17

The key to the game was Buffalo showing up and not letting Miami build momentum.  Brandon “Son of Alonzo” Thermilus showed up for the first time all season scoring two touchdowns in after a sluggish first quarter. 

Turner showed some coaching guts by leading a drive at the end of the first half.  The result, two scores in 2:27 minutes to change the game from a 7-3 score to 21-3 going into halftime.  In addition a trick play to open the half put the game away.

Story: Buffalo plays for pride while Miami looks for inspiration for next season. 

Buffalo Player to Watch: Everyone

Miami is 1-10.  This is one of those games where each player has to show up and play.  If they can do that they should win.  Two weeks ago, Temple made the mistake of coming in looking for an easy win, but there is no such thing in the MAC anymore, Temple escaped with a 34-32 after kicking the winning field goal with 3 seconds left. Come out and play, you win.  Lack effort, you may just lose, it’s as simple as that.

Miami Player to Watch: QB Zac Dysert.

Dysert is the Redhawks offense.  He is a 2000 yard passer and Miami’s second leading rusher.  As a freshman, he struggles with interceptions, break his confidence early, and he’s toast, let him build up his confidence and he can hurt you.
