The Florida International offense moved the ball well, compiling 381 yards, but scored only 9 points after turning the ball over 3 times. Defensively, Florida International had their issues, giving up 19 points, including 13 in the fourth quarter. JJ Kohl led the Florida International offense last week, completing 31 passes for 301 yards and 1 score, and added a team-leading 31 yards on 6 carries.

Buffalo vs FIU Pick

Florida International is the home team Saturday and should do the job to get the home victory. Despite the Panthers having the edge at home, Buffalo has enough talent on both sides of the ball to keep things close. Take Florida International to pick up their first victory of the season Saturday, but the Buffalo Bulls will cover the double-digit number.
