No. 20 Buffalo will go up against Ball State in the 2020 Mid-American Conference championship game Friday night and it’s been a great season for both teams.

Buffalo also brings Kyle Vantrease and Antonio Nunn on offense. Vantrease has six touchdown passes on the season and Nunn has 353 receiving yards on 20 catches along with two touchdowns.
Ball State is coming off a comeback victory against Western Michigan to secure a spot in the MAC championship game. The Cardinals are 5-1 this season with the only loss coming in the first game against Miami-Ohio.
Drew Plitt leads the offense. He has 13 touchdown passes and 1,674 passing yards this season. Yo’Heinz Tyler has six touchdown catches, which leads the team and will be a tough matchup for any Bulls defender.
