The University of Buffalo had a magical season in 2018 with the basketball team in the top 25 and the football team winning nine games, which is the most in program history. A lot of talent departed from that nine-win team but the luxury of a very strong team allows many players to get experience late in games, and the dropoff is not quite as severe. Buffalo opened with an easy win and were thrashed on the scoreboard vs. Penn State at 45-13. A closer look reveals Buffalo outgained Penn State 429-367, which hardly matches the score. I think they head to Liberty vastly underrated. Liberty was shutout by Syracuse who then gave up over 60 points to Maryland. They manages just 14 points vs. LA-Lafayette. This looks like more of a mismatch than a 4-point line and will grab the value on Buffalo.
