Article By: The Buffalo Bulls charged onto the field, ready to lock horns with the Hoosiers of Indiana on Sunday afternoon. Quarterback CJ Ogbonna (#7) took command, his arm as he launched pass after pass. With 19 completions for 215 yards and 3 touchdowns, Ogbonna was on fire, though a lone interception kept the fans on edge.
Running back Lamar Sperling (#32) danced through defenders, racking up 54 yards on 17 attempts. But Ogbonna's ground game surprised everyone - 6 carries for 91 yards, leaving spectators wondering if he had wings on his cleats. 2 of these runs came after miraculous escapes from a heavy Indiana pass rush.
The receiving corps put on a show. Taji Johnson (#11) snagged 5 catches for 38 yards, while JJ Jenkins (#2) found the end zone twice among his 5 receptions for 61 yards. Even Sperling got in on the action, hauling in 4 passes.
On defense, linebacker Shaun Dolac (#52) was a force of nature, racking up 11 solo tackles and 3 assists. Safety Marcus Fuqua (#10) wasn't far behind with 9 solo takedowns. The defensive line brought the pressure, with Kobe Stewart (#9) and George Wolo (#90) each notching 2 tackles for loss.
As the final seconds ticked away, the Bulls emerged victorious in a high-scoring affair. The scoreboard told the tale of a hard-fought battle: 455 total yards for Buffalo, with a balanced attack of 215 passing and 146 rushing yards. The defense bent but didn't break, allowing 405 yards but forcing a crucial turnover.
In the locker room, coach OldManWobbles grinned ear to ear. "That's Buffalo football, boys!" he roared. "Now let's keep this momentum rolling!"
