MAC FOOTBALL Saturday’s game
Akron 21, Buffalo 20
AKRON
Thomas Woodson was 21-of-29 passing for 291 yards and three touchdowns, and Akron beat Buffalo. Woodson was pressured on his go-ahead touchdown pass but found fifth-year senior Kevin Gladney for a one-handed grab in the end zone to give Akron a one-point lead with 4:46 remaining in the game. It was Gladney’s first touchdown of his career. Buffalo answered with an 11-play, 45-yard drive but Tyree Jackson’s pass on third-and-6 was incomplete and Adam Mitcheson missed a 46-yard field goal with 1:51 left. The Bulls had three timeouts but Akron was able to pick up two first downs to run out the clock.
