Can Buffalo Outsmart Central Michigan’s One-Dimensional Attack and Seize Victory?
Central Michigan has put together a solid season as well with the same overall record as Buffalo. However, Buffalo is in second within the MAC and Central Michigan has two losses in their conference, putting them a bit lower in the standings. Their two conference losses both came on the road, so perhaps they just can’t close games out as a visitor. At home, they’ve gone 3-0 and it seems like their defense gets a big boost considering they have allowed just 36 total points in the three games. The biggest issue that I see with the Chippewas is their passing game. Joe Labas, their quarterback, is completing almost 80% of passes this season, but he has a total of 1,066 passing yards. His season high in attempts is 21. For a lot of teams, 21 attempts would be the floor. They have 400 rushing attempts and 152 passing attempts total for the year. I suppose it works, so maybe I shouldn’t be too hard on them, but being one-dimensional is hard to win football games, usually.
