Bowling Green vs Buffalo Prediction
Don’t look now, but Buffalo is playing good ball all of a sudden, which includes three straight covers and two straight wins. One of those wins was an upset over Toledo as near three touchdown underdogs. Bowling Green just lost last week to Ball State as a touchdown favorite. Bowling Green is awful on both sides of the ball and, outside of a win over Miami OH, has looked underwhelming. You can argue Buffalo should be an even bigger favorite. I’ll lay the small number with the Bulls.
