@Plough,

If there’s any one city who knows about losing teams it’s Buffalo! We’ve got the Bills, the Sabres, and the UB Bulls. Guess what? Losers no more! Maybe the other two teams will finally jump on the bandwagon.

@Brian, Apology accepted. Buffalo fans are accustom to what you are feeling,…we don’t wish it on anyone. Congratulations to Ball State for a historic undefeated regular season! I’ll be routing for the Fighting Cardinals in the GMAC Bowl on January 6th. Buffalo Tom

@Buffalo Tom, My apologies Tom. I’m getting over it now that a few days has passed. Still feel it was taken from us but that’s not Buffalo’s fault. Congratulations to you on the big win.

@Brian,

Ouch…a really sore loser! I suppose you are right though, BSU put a ribbon on it. But, don’t you think UB deserves a little credit. At the half it was BSU 10 UB 7. The Bulls played BSU pretty even up to that point. So, let’s face it, UB took the gifts the Fighting Cardinals gave them. If you believe that BSU is so good, they should have been way ahead by a ton the half, but they were only up by 3. A great team should have a had chance to overcome the adversity that they brought upon themselves, but they didn’t. They kind of fell apart. It’s OK, no one is perfect, just ask the New England Patriots. You’re wrong about one thing, plenty of people will remember, maybe only UB Alum will remember it was Buffalo, but thanks to David Letterman (maybe only because of Letterman), everyone will remember that BSU had a melt-down on national televison. My hat is off to Turner Gill (everyone will remember him…his best days are yet to come), and the UB Bulls. They pulled off something that no one thought could be done. That’s why they play the game. Go Bulls!

AHHHHHHH!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

My teams are The Raiders, The Hoosiers, and Ball State… Is it too much to ask for one good team? Is it? Why god, why? Sure I heard Nate Davis had the flu and you know he looked sick and still threw a perfect ball. DAMN IT, if Dante Love hadn’t had his career cut short we would have won but no… Davis gets the flu, Love has gone from NFL prospect to finishing college and graduating with a BSU degree (trust me, a BSU degree holder, they are worthless) and I am stuck listening to assholes tell me how much BSU sucks cause they lost one eff’ing game, and dealing with the fact we screwed up our gamble by turning down the Boise State bowl game in hopes of a BCS game….DAMN!!!!

Just need to say that Ball State dominated that game last night and I have lost sleep over the fact that that it gift wrapped and handed to Buffalo. So Merry Christmas Bulls and just remember that no one will remember you. Call it what you want, I call it how I see it and the referees gave it to you. Half of those turnovers would have never happened had Ball State not been in desperation mode after that ridiculous 14 point swing after a review of a touchdown that my four year old could call. Not to mention the very next drive they missed a review that was just as clear on a long first down catch. I’ve been watching football for a long time now and have never seen anything so obvious, why even have replay or review? So Buffalo, your arogance is understood, I’m sure we will see you at the referees house for Christmas dinner– just make sure you mop the floor after your circle jerk. And thats the last we will ever see of you!!!
