Buffalo vs Missouri Prediction, Preview, & Odds – 9/7/2024

The Buffalo Bulls are set to clash with the Missouri Tigers on September 7, 2024, with the Tigers a massive favorite of 34.5 points. Meanwhile, the total for this game is set at 52.5 points in what is expected to be a lopsided affair. Here, we preview Buffalo vs Missouri and give you our best bet for this matchup between schools from the MAC and SEC.

Buffalo Faces Tough Test In Missouri

The Buffalo Bulls won their first game of this season last Saturday, beating up on FCS Lafayette at home by a score of 30-13. But Buffalo could be in for a world of hurt this weekend when they travel to Columbia to take on a top-10 team on the road. While the Bulls are huge underdogs in this contest, they will hope that their defense can hold up well enough to give them a shot in this matchup.

Quarterback CJ Ogbonna’s performance in this game will be key for the Bulls as well. He wasn’t great against Lafayette, completing just 14 of his 24 pass attempts for 195 yards and two touchdowns. He will need to do a lot more than that if the Bulls are going to have a shot at an upset on Saturday evening.

Top-10 Missouri Tigers Heavy Favorites At Home

The Missouri Tigers got a win in their first game of the 2024 season, beating up on FCS Murray State at home by a score of 51-0. This game wasn’t all that helpful in Mizzou’s quest to be considered an elite team this season, but the Tigers have to be feeling good going into this week’s action where they will be expected to improve to 2-0 with a win over Buffalo out of the MAC.

Missouri’s defense was impressive in Week 1, even by the standards of a team playing against an FCS opponent. The Tigers held Murray State to just 86 yards of offense in one of the most lopsided games of Week 1. While they may not be able to uphold that same standard against an FBS opponent, it would take a ton for Buffalo to move the ball consistently against the Tigers in this non-conference matchup.

Buffalo vs Missouri Best Bet

We are going to lay the points with Missouri in Saturday’s Buffalo vs Missouri contest. The Tigers are so good on both sides of the ball, while Buffalo is not nearly as good as they looked in Week 1 against Lafayette. Look for the Tigers to prove why they are ranked in the top-10 in the country in this game, as they should easily move to 2-0 on the year.
