Why the Buffs are better than most of us think

This is the most balanced Buffs team we've had in years.

Sometimes an upstart team will have a surprise season by being really good at one thing like passing the ball 60 times a game, etc..The Buffs aren't like this. In fact, they might be a little better overall than the 2001 or 2002 Buffs, though its a little premature to make that judgment for sure.

The Buffs have done surprisingly well in just about every phase of the game besides Special Teams: Running, Passing, Running Defense, Passing Defense. Only a handful of teams in the country can say they have this kind of balance.
