Bowling Green Falcons vs Buffalo Bulls Predictions October 24, 2026
Buffalo will beat Bowling Green 24-21 in our forecast for Oct. 24, with Messiah Burch's four consecutive 100-yard rushing games giving the Bulls the strongest recent offensive foundation. The edge is modest: Buffalo needed overtime to win its last game, and Bowling Green showed a dangerous passing connection. Buffalo -4.5 (-109) offers no compelling value here, making Pass the official betting recommendation.
Bowling Green Falcons vs Buffalo Bulls prediction and best bet
Buffalo is the pick to win, but the projected three-point margin makes laying 4.5 points unattractive. Burch's sustained production gives the Bulls a persuasive starting point for the forecast. It does not, by itself, settle how comfortably they can beat Bowling Green.
The Falcons bring a credible counter through Jay Kastantin's passing. Both teams went to overtime on October 17, with Buffalo beating Massachusetts and Bowling Green losing to Ball State. Those results against different opponents offer no clean separation between these teams. The official best-bet decision is Pass, with low confidence in the Buffalo forecast.
