Games today ...

Only NFL playoff games today. 

Here you'll find The Buffalo News' scorecard of the UB Bulls collapse against UConn (and more here, here, and here). Bob DiCesares writes:

Some might suggest the journey is somehow tainted by UB’s 38-20 loss to Connecticut on Saturday afternoon at the Rogers Centre. That’s hardly the case. The beauty of this season is that the darn slipper actually fit, and to utter perfection. A program mired somewhere far below mediocrity for almost a decade proved that it can play winning football, expects to play winning football, and it has the conference title to prove it. No way the Bulls trade the Mid-American Conference East, let alone the MAC crown, for beating UConn. They ate the cake, just left the frosting. No crime in that.

I don't completely agree with the analogies, but he makes a good point. This was a Cinderella season of sorts for the Bulls. But when the clock struck twelve and their running game turned into a pumpkin, they still didn't get prince charming (i.e. win a bowl game). I don't care how many bowl games there are in college football, winning one still matters. 

Overall, though, this season was a complete success for college football in Buffalo. People in the city actually care about Buffalo college football. 

Here is more on the Sabres win against the Bruins (with more here and here).
