Pass offense

B

A great day for wide receivers considering that this year&amp;#8217;s leading receiver, Armand Robinson, was out with an injury and considering that last year&amp;#8217;s leading receiver, Chris Givens, has missed most of the season with an injury. Brayden Coombs had no idea he had caught a school-record 14 passes until he was informed of the fact at the post-game press conference. Jamal Rogers had a career-high nine receptions, Dustin Woods caught a touchdown pass in his final game, Daniel Raudabaugh threw one in his final game. Dysert had a decent but unspectacular night, passing for 194 yards with a touchdown, along with an interception. And he was sacked five times.

Run offense

D

Danny Green looked solid in his brief playing time, running twice for 27 yards. But overall, the less said about Miami&amp;#8217;s running game this year, the better.

Pass defense

C-minus

Buffalo&amp;#8217;s Zach Maynard completed 13-of-18 passes for 136 yards and a touchdown, but wide receiver Terrel Jackson stole the show when he connected with tight end Jesse Rack on a 30-yard touchdown pass. It was Jackson&amp;#8217;s first pass attempt of the season. Miami&amp;#8217;s pass defense had no interceptions, no sacks, which isn&amp;#8217;t surprising since Maynard spent most of the second half handing off. Also, to be fair to the RedHawks, they were pretty banged up on the defensive line and in the backfield.

Run defense

F

Junior running back Brandon Thermilus had run for 311 yards and two touchdowns in his first nine games. Against the RedHawks he ran for 126 yards and two touchdowns. Maynard also caused some damaged, scrambling for 61 yards and a touchdown. Evan Harris, Brandon Stephens, Jerrell Wedge and Luke Kelly did have tackles for loss. But the RedHawks allowed 240 yards on the ground and a 7.7-yard average per carry, which is not good.

Special teams

D

Trevor Cook nailed a 37-yard field goal and then missed a 29-yard chip shot. Punting stayed unspectacular until the end, and so did Miami&amp;#8217;s return teams.

Intangibles

F

Miami officials have to be concerned about the size of its football crowds. There weren&amp;#8217;t even close to 1,000 fans at Yager Stadium, though the 300 or so who did show up &amp;#8212; and stayed until the end &amp;#8212; deserve a medal. Fan attendance has been lacking for years for football, but this was a new low.

Junior running back Brandon Thermilus, who did not touch the football in the first quarter, scored on two touchdown runs for Buffalo in the second quarter, and the Bulls lead the Miami RedHawks 21-3 at halftime at Yager Stadium.

The Bulls scored all three of their touchdowns in the final 7 minutes of the second quarter.

Thermilus&amp;#8217; runs covered 3 and 31 yards for Buffalo, the defending Mid-American Conference champion.

Buffalo&amp;#8217;s third touchdown of the quarter, coming just 13.2 seconds before halftime, was scored on a 2-yard run by quarterback Zach Maynard.

Miami&amp;#8217;s only points came on a Trevor Cook 37-yard field goal which gave the RedHawks a 3-0 lead early in the second quarter.

Trevor Cook kicked a 37-yard field goal to give the Miami RedHawks a 3-0 lead over the Buffalo Bulls with 10:10 remaining in the second quarter at Yager Stadium.

The drive, which started at Miami&amp;#8217;s 22-yard line, was engineered by senior quarterback Daniel Raudabaugh, who is playing in his final collegiate game.

Zac Dysert started for Miami, but coach Michael Haywood had said on Monday that Raudabaugh might see some action today.

The Miami RedHawks moved into Buffalo territory on each of its first two possessions in tonight&amp;#8217;s football game at Yager Stadium and came away with no points both times.

With 1:11 left in the first quarter there is no score.

Miami moved to the Buffalo 37-yard line in the first drive, but the possession stalled following a holding penalty.

The RedHawks moved to the Buffalo 32 on its second possession, but then a pass from Zac Dysert was intercepted in the end zone by senior safety Mike Newton, who returned it to the Bulls&amp;#8217; 30.
