Despite the result on the scoreboard, there was plenty of action in this game. Just not scoring.
In a battle of third string quarterbacks, missed field goals, and long drives with little result, the Northern Illinois Huskies topped the Buffalo Bulls 14-13 in UB Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
Last week, Buffalo set a FBS record by scoring 68 points in a loss. But against Northern Illinois, Lance Leipold's team only reached the end zone once on its home turf and decreased its scoring output by 55 points from the previous week.
After six consecutive punting drives to open the contest, Bulls struck first with a 23-yard field goal set up by several Drew Anderson-to-Anthony Johnson strikes.
