Previously postponed Akron/Buffalo game rescheduled to Friday, Dec. 2

Due to a state of emergency in the city of Buffalo where snowfall reached historic levels, the Mid-American Conference postponed the Buffalo Bulls’ home game against the Akron Zips on Friday, Nov. 18 — one day before the game was slated to kick off.

Buffalo (5-5, 4-2 MAC) remained alive for the MAC Championship Game headed into that contest, but the Bulls officially lost their shot at a conference championship Tuesday night, when Ohio steamrolled Bowling Green by a final score of 38-14 to punch a ticket to Detroit.

Thanks to Ohio’s win freeing up Buffalo’s plans the first week of December, the Bulls’ matchup with Akron has been officially scheduled for that weekend, with the conference announcing Wednesday morning that the matchup between Buffalo and Akron will transpire at UB Stadium in Amherst, NY on Friday, Dec.
