A week after steamrolling an overmatched foe, No. 9 Mizzou's degree of difficulty ratchets up a notch when the Tigers host Buffalo on Saturday night in Columbia, Missouri.
Mizzou, up 35-0 at halftime, eventually won 51-0 in its opener, as the second half provided opportunities for the Tigers to showcase their depth.
Like Mizzou, Buffalo began its season vs. a football championship subdivision foe on Thursday, Aug. 29.
The Bulls, in their first game under new head coach Pete Lembo, faced a much tougher FCS foe in Lafayette, which is ranked in the top 25 in that division.
Buffalo led 16-0 at halftime and prevailed 30-13 in that game.
The Bulls were in the 12-team Mid-American Conference.
