Ashley Powell received an ‘A’ on her “White Only, Black Only” art project.

And that’s not the only support the gradu-ate fine arts student has received from UB’s Department of Arts, whose faculty say the controversial work is exactly what art is sup-posed to be: provocative.

But student leaders and even some UB offi-cials tell a different story: That Powell’s work was traumatizing and the university must cre-ate a policy so students know what is accept-able art and what crosses the line.

Nearly two months after the incident in which Powell hung signs reading “White Only” and “Black Only” around campus bathrooms, benches and water fountains for a class project, tensions and discussions are still resonating across the UB community.

Some students, especially leaders of the Black Student Union (BSU), are calling for repercussions against Powell and the arts de-partment as well as for UB to create a pol-icy on public art. The arts department has been in full support of Powell and her work. UB administration, caught between the two groups, is trying to find some sort of balance with a policy that would set clear guidelines on expressive art.

But now, months after Powell hung the signs, UB administration and the arts depart-ment have yet to announce a decision about future policies or officially answer the ques-tions Powell’s project raised.

What is the line between creative freedom for artists and the rights of minorities on campus?

Did Powell’s project cross that line – as some students believe – or did it not?

Can students post anything they want in the public space of a university regardless of the hurt it causes others or the historical weight of words and symbols?

A policy committee in the College of Arts and Sciences is still reviewing the incident as leaders from the UB administration, the arts department and student organizations plan to meet again this month. But with students de-manding answers, pressure is mounting for the university to take an official stance.

Leaders on all sides remain far apart in how they view Powell’s project.

bers of BSU – there is no need for the arts department to release a public statement because “an art department stands for the freedom of expression.”

That alone, he said, should be under-stood as the “official” response of the arts department.

“We want our students to take positions that are at the far edge of what is consid-ered the social norm,” he said.

Katz said he wasn’t surprised by the stu-dent reaction to the project, but that many in the arts department faculty were “in-credulous that people don’t understand that this work is anti-racist.” He said he’s “shocked” to see what he considers a lack of understanding about what art is.

“I think, frankly, [the project] became a cause celeb for a range of real, genuine social and cultural unrests around racism in Ameri-ca, not least, Black Lives Matter – all of which fed the work in the first place,” Katz said.

Katz, who also heads the fine arts Ph.D program, said the incendiary reaction to the project was natural because it’s what the work was trying to accomplish in the first place. Katz said he has received furious emails from black students, as well as furi-ous emails from racists claiming the project was race-baiting and creating a race war.

“You have black students saying this hurt me, and you’ve got racists saying this hurt me,” Katz said. “That ought to tell you this is doing the right thing.”

Powell, who is black and was trying to show her own suffering from racism and create a discussion with the signs, said that if it weren’t for the overwhelming support from the arts faculty, she would have buckled under the an-ger she faced from the UB community.

“All of them supported me, they were emailing me: ‘This is what great art does,’ ‘This is the purpose of art, don’t back down,’” she said. “Art isn’t something that is supposed to make everyone feel great or always make people feel happy – if you can make someone feel uncomfortable, if you can make people think about some-thing after looking at your piece, then you did a good thing.”

Pressure mounts for UB to take stance on ‘White Only’ art project

Katz said he reached out to Powell im-mediately when students voiced strong feel-ings about the project and has met with her several times since. Even faculty mem-bers from other departments have support-ed Powell. Ana Grujic, an instructor in the composition program run through the Eng-lish department, helped Powell write her of-ficial project statement.

President Satish Tripathi, in a sit down in-terview with The Spectrum last week, said UB needs a policy concerning works of art in public places – and that art projects need to be labeled as such.

“Arts are going to be controversial,” he said. “But when it’s put on the wall, one should say that this is art. So there must be a

policy on the campus. The arts department can come up with a policy that if you are doing any kind of experiment, you register yourself with the art department.”

Tripathi has faced continued pressure from BSU for UB to create a policy. BSU protested Tripathi’s annual address last month, demanding answers about the proj-ect. The student organization has also held meetings with university leaders. BSU has asked the university to create a clear policy for future art projects, as well as reprimand Powell and the arts department.

Tripathi said UB cannot punish Powell because she did not break any rule in the Student Code of Conduct.

BSU President Micah Oliver said that the university and the arts department should

show more responsibility for their students.“As an individual, I think the art depart-

ment should be held accountable because the implications of the project were under the art department’s watch,” he said. “Re-gardless of what school it is, that depart-ment needs to be responsible because of the fallout and because of the negative im-pact – the horrible impact – it made on stu-dents and on this campus, on a whole.”

Oliver, who is also the chief justice of the Student-Wide Judiciary, said the most dis-appointing thing about the university re-sponse to the “White Only, Black Only” project was that “the institution that I love has done something to me in a very nega-tive way.”

“The art department is a part of UB – and I love UB. The most disappointing part of the university not responding is that I thought better of the university itself,” Ol-iver said.

Oliver said the responsibility ultimate-ly comes down to the arts department that oversees students’ works of art, like Pow-ell’s.

“This happened under a university-sanc-tioned curriculum,” Oliver said. “And for

that reason, the department that houses, produces and ensures that the curriculum is taught and experienced by students must be responsible, ultimately.”

Powell, caught in a place of student-driv-en anger and faculty support, is just trying to maintain her own vision.

As an artist, Powell said having a set goal – upending racism in society – is the most inspirational and important part of keeping her sane and keeping her driven.

Powell said the ‘A’ on her “White Only, Black Only” project didn’t really matter to her. For her, the main indicator of success isn’t the amount of negative feedback she is receiving, rather the discussion about race she has created and the support from the arts faculty she has received.

According to Katz, a meeting between Katz, Tripathi and Oliver to create an offi-cial statement and perhaps a new policy on public art is set for sometime in mid-No-vember.

Christmas has always been one of my favorite holidays. There’s a magical feeling that comes with the holiday season that doesn’t oc-cur at any other time of year.

As someone who was raised in a Catholic household, for years I went to religious education where other kids and I learned about the history behind our religion, includ-ing the history of Christmas.

Not once did I learn that the true meaning of Christmas should be defined by how mega-corpora-tions choose to advertise. I don’t recall a Bible passage that discuss-es how the three wise men came bearing gifts of Starbucks lattes in a classic holiday cup design the night Jesus was born.

But the way people are react-

ing over the recently released Star-bucks holiday cup design, one may think that’s exactly what happened.

Since 1997, Starbucks has annu-ally unveiled a holiday cup featur-ing a new design. In the past, the cup designs have included winter themes ranging from snowflakes to snowmen on a red background. This year, Starbucks introduced a simple red cup with an ombré de-sign as its holiday design.

Controversy soon followed after the announcement.

It first started with one man who posted a video on Facebook of himself talking about how he hates the new cup design, de-claring that Starbucks is against Christmas and is contributing to the “war on Christmas.” He even encouraged people to go to Star-bucks to order drinks and tell the baristas their names are “Merry Christmas” so it can be written on the cup. Many others have taken to Twitter with the hashtag “boycott Starbucks” in order to voice their displeasure.

When I first saw a headline about people being outraged over the Starbucks holiday cups, I laughed. I thought it was a joke. To my disbelief, upon further reading the article I realized it was not sat-

ire – some people were actually of-fended about how a coffee shop is distributing their drinks.

Since when is Christmas about commercial items? I always learned that Christmas was about the birth of Jesus. Are we all so immersed in the commercial as-pect of Christmas that we really don’t see the true meaning?

Arguably, the other holiday cups never symbolized Christmas ei-ther. Last year, the cups had sim-ple brushstrokes of snowflakes and pine tree needles. The year before that, snowflakes and orna-ments wrapped around the Star-bucks logo. Snowmen have also been a popular staple consum-ers have seen on their coffee cups during the holiday season.

While all of these make me think about Christmastime, these images loosely represent Christ-mas and ultimately just link the holidays to the winter weather in which they occur. I don’t see how anyone could make a good argu-ment about how a winking snow-man represents the birth of Jesus.

If a red cup is offensive to you and ruining your Christmas be-cause you don’t believe a corpora-tion is properly celebrating a holi-day, you have to look into how you

perceive one of the most impor-tant holidays in Christian faith.

If you’re reading this and find yourself as one of the people who are angered by the lack of Christ-mas on your Starbucks cup, I hope you do boycott the company.

This is not because I agree with you. I want you to boycott Star-bucks because I hope you take that $5 bill you would have spent on a venti coffee and instead donate it to a homeless shelter or buy a toy for a child in need.

If you’re that concerned with the lack of Christmas spirit at a corporation, use your own Christ-mas spirit to help others in need during a time where there’s em-phasis on helping one another out.

So instead of taking to social media to voice your displeasure at what you feel is the lack of corpo-rations celebrating Christmas, take that passion and follow the true meaning of Christmas by giving to those who are less fortunate and by celebrating the birth of Jesus.

In the end, that’s what gives the holiday season that magical feeling – not what design is on your Star-bucks cup.

The University of Missouri has made national headlines this week with racial tension and protest di-viding the campus.

The Missouri Student Associa-tion president and members of the Legion of Black Collegians were called the N-word. Swastikas were drawn on the walls of the campus.

This and other incidents of rac-ism led minority students at Mis-souri to demand a response from the university.

But they felt Missouri President Tim Wolfe inadequately respond-ed to the racial tension on the campus and they lost confidence and respect in him as a leader, as they should.

Black students wanted Wolfe to pay attention to their torment. They wanted him to understand their discomfort.

So they took action. Student protestors interrupt-

ed the homecoming parade. Jona-than Butler, a black graduate stu-dent, went on a hunger strike. He said he would not eat until Wolfe was removed from the university.

Officials had to choose: Either

keep an insensitive and incapable president in office or keep the life of one of their students.

Butler’s failing organs weren’t the deciding factor in Wolfe’s res-ignation, which finally came Mon-day. Instead it was the possibility of paying a $1 million fine.

The Missouri Tigers football pledging to not play until Wolfe was removed is what ultimate-ly brought attention to the issue and led to Wolfe’s resignation two days afterward. Had the Tigers not played their scheduled game against BYU Saturday, the univer-sity would have been fined $1 mil-lion.

As former Missouri football player Michael Sam pointed out, “Things change when sports gets involved.”

A student who could possibly lose his life wasn’t much of a con-cern. But Wolfe and the universi-ty sure took action once the foot-ball team threatened to put a hole in the university’s budget.

The Spectrum commends the football team for taking a stance when they could’ve easily con-tinued on with their season with-

out any repercussions. But we be-lieve it is truly unfortunate that it took a financial scare for the uni-versity to recognize the inhumane and unjust atmosphere on campus and make one of the first steps to changing that.

While taking looking at our own university, we hope UB continues on the path its started on to an-swering its own questions about race on campus. After the “White Only” sign controversy in Sep-tember, students like members of the Black Student Union and oth-er student organizations, have de-manded a response from UB through open forums, walking out on President Satish Tripathi’s an-nual address and holding meetings with the administration.

Although some progress has been made, UB has yet to come to a final decision or make a new pol-icy regarding the “White Only” in-cident, and we hope our student leaders continue to put the pres-sure on.

Because if the unfortunate sit-uation at Missouri has taught us anything, it’s that students really do have power.

There are times when peace-ful protests are appropriate. There are also times when a hunger strike and refusal to take the field are the only necessary measures to ensure change. And there are times doing so can bring about change.

Although people are giving credit to the football team, Butler’s actions have to be admired and ac-knowledged as well. The Missouri administration might not have cared enough about one’s man health to make a change, but his hunger strike is what showed the nation the severity of the issue and the measures students will take to maintain a safe and inclusive cam-pus environment.

Butler has shown us that we aren’t just students.

We are leaders. We are fighters.We have the ability to make a

change on our campus. We also don’t have to settle for

administration that doesn’t prop-erly tend to our student needs and basic human rights.

Whether it was “Dragon Ball Z,” “Na-ruto” or another cult favorite running on Adult Swim during its prime, viewers have flocked to the TV to see the latest in anime.

Recently aired “One Punch Man,” based off the manga of the same name, takes as-pects from your favorite animes and makes it obvious how ridiculously cliché they are.

The series is written by author ONE, who released the manga for free on his website. “One Punch Man” follows the story of Saitama, a hero that can defeat any foe with one punch. Watching the show, you come to realize how much he might have in common with Gozu from “Dragon Ball Z.”

Constantly having to save the world from increasingly stronger enemies, you begin to wonder how long the show will go on. Like many animes and TV shows, “One Punch Man” just keeps on going.

We’re first introduced to Saitama when an alien with purple antennae – suspicious-ly similar in appearance to Piccolo from “Dragon Ball Z” – appears and begins de-stroying the city in which Saitama lives.

As the alien seems like he’s about to kill a young girl, a bald man in a white cape saves her and turns to face the monster.

As the show’s name implies, the monster is killed with one punch – which all but liq-uefies the monster from the waist up.

Unlike “Dragon Ball Z,” – in which Goku and Frieza engaged in a notoriously long 19-episode fight – you don’t see fights last-ing longer than a single episode in “One Punch Man.”

Only six episodes in and Saitama has de-feated multiple enemies.

With over 104 chapters of manga to work from, the show moves along fairly quickly. This was a problem faced by both “Drag-on Ball Z” and “Naruto,” both of which produced episodes too fast for the manga to keep up and left viewers with “filler” ep-isodes.

“One Punch Man” creates humor from its character interactions and doesn’t rely too heavily on the spoof factor, but those who watch anime or superhero shows often can appreciate the level of satire.

In the fight sequence in which Saitama fights Asura Rhino, Saitama explains his workout routine that made him so strong – the same routine that caused him to go bald: 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats and a 10-K run.

Anyone who as seen at least one episode

of a fighting anime knows the lengths in which characters go to train for their next fight can border on obsessive and deadly. Compared to Saitama’s basic workout, its like the manga creators are poking fun at ev-ery training montage ever made.

As expected, the other characters present in the scene don’t believe it.

Making the characters self-aware of how preposterous Saitama’s workout is and how powerful the protagonist is gets to the root of what the show is all about.

While other anime shows put the viewer in a position to want to know how powerful the next enemy will be, there is only so far it can go until that gets ridiculous.

For example, after attaining the powerups “Super Saiyan 1, 2, 3 and 4,” Goku and Vegeta in “Dragon Ball Z” have attained

the power level of “God,” seemingly forc-ing the writers into a hole – where do you go from “Super Saiyan God?”

“One Punch Man” has set the precedent with Saitama. He might get thrown around a bit, but that’s only until he turns his atten-tion to a fight as opposed to thinking about a missed bargain sale at the grocery store.

Overall, “One Punch Man” provides a fresh take for anime-lovers, essentially switching the script on character develop-ment.

A show that makes fun of its genre as much as it makes fun of itself, you’ll find yourself laughing out loud every episode. “One Punch Man” is available via Hulu in English, Portuguese, Spanish and Japanese.

“Spectre” was everything a spy movie should be.

It features a man of mystery who must go on a mission to both save the world and de-feat his nemesis. There are plot twists and of course, a beautiful girl who falls for our hero, which puts her in danger. At the end of the day he gets through his missions un-scathed because of his wit and athleticism.

What sets “Spectre” aside from say, “Aus-tin Powers,” is the craft of the movie itself. Bond is a character that will live forever. He is not your average international super spy – he IS espionage.

This is the 24th installation of Bond’s ad-ventures and viewers keep coming back for more.

Each movie improves the franchise – it didn’t make as much as “Skyfall” ($117.8 globally versus $1 billion) but “Spectre” still came in as the second highest grossing Bond film.

“Spectre” also set a Guinness World Re-cord for the largest film stunt explosion ever in film history.

The film is the last of Sony’s Bond tril-ogy featuring Daniel Craig that began with

“Quantum Solace” and was followed up with “Skyfall.”

The opening credits set the pace of the film. They aren’t just words on a black screen introducing the actors – they intro-duce the theme of the entire movie and present the latest Bond song “Writing’s on the Wall” by Sam Smith. Special effects cre-ate the air of intrigue that is so definitive of the genre.

Daniel Craig’s portrayal of the hero is ef-fective. He is both entrancing and impres-sive – his emotions flip from seduction to striking within seconds, flawlessly. Though the plot is inherently predictable, Bond is not.

The movie also stars newcomer Lea Sey-doux, who creates a new type of damsel in distress – an intelligent one. She plays a doc-tor, which is a refreshing take on the other-wise mildly pathetic role of women in these films. She’s emotionally strong and takes an active role in Bond’s missions.

The film, as many spy movies do, also takes viewers to a variety of locations. They’re beautifully shot and appropriately inserted – it doesn’t seem useless or forced for Bond to be traveling so much, especially at this point in the series.

Bond’s crew, which consists of super-genius Q (Ben Whishaw, “Skyfall”) and a new M (Ralph Fiennes, “The Grand Buda-pest Hotel”) isn’t a group of superb friends who have known each other forever. That

troupe is overused in many films and takes away from the beauty of their efficiency. They don’t need to be best friends to work well together – they do because all three are good at their jobs.

“Spectre” was a good final film in the tril-ogy because it wrapped up everything else rather nicely. It left little to the imagination and answered many of the major questions the first two movies posed. Though there were some holes in the plot, overall, it gave explanation for events that may have other-wise been forgotten.

It’s worth the watch because of the name, but also because the film was made beau-tifully – thanks Sam Mendes – accurately and in a manner in which you could en-joy it, even if you’ve never seen Bond in action before.

‘Spectre’ raises the barThe latest Bond installment exceeds spy movie clichés

“Spectre” falls shortJames Bond versus Illuminati is more “Quantum of Solace” than“Skyfall”

AUBREY MCLAUGHLINSTAFF WRITER

Grade: B- Company: SonyRelease Date: Nov. 6

If Bond fans enter the theater expect-ing another franchise-shattering reinvention like “Skyfall” was, I expect them to depart disappointed.

“Spectre,” the 24th movie in the Bond franchise and fourth with Daniel Craig from “Layer Cake” as the lead, fails to sur-prise audiences with fresh material.

Instead, he excelled with the old treats: sexy, deadly women along ruthless master-minds kung-fu fighting around the world to help or hinder an MI6 agent with impossi-ble luck only a screenwriter could contrive.

Think more deus ex machina than re-sourcefulness – an early scene has James Bond falling at least two stories in a collaps-ing building under gunfire to land safe on a couch below.

Yikes. To me, and I’m sure many other fans

of the series, storytelling laziness fuels the grand scheme of “Spectre.”

Last November’s Sony hack leaked an early version of the script, accredited by some as the culprit for this fumble.

The movie opens with 007 going af-ter a criminal we don’t know much about and never get the opportunity to. We have no reason to care about this person, as the movie quickly moves on from his storyline.

But to the surprise of no one, he had a beautiful wife played by Monica Bellucci from “The Matrix Reloaded.”

Of course, Bond is both the international super spy and the master at seduction. This woman was too easy though – it almost took away from the excitement of Bond’s suave demeanor.

Once the job is done, Bond gets “grounded” by his new boss, M (Ralph Fi-ennes, “The Grand Budapest Hotel”). This also comes as a non-surprise – the unpre-dictable spy is punished for being unpre-dictable. New character C (Andrew Scott, “Sherlock”) who becomes everyone’s boss, starts making moves to unite the world’s surveillance powers in an effort to keep an eye on everyone.

Big Brother, much?You can see from miles away where this

is heading. The plot is predictable and only

becomes more so as the movie progresses.Christoph Waltz (“Inglourious Basterds”)

frustrated me most. For an actor beloved by so many for his ability to dig into complex roles with wit and humor, these concepts are abandoned by the actor in his role.

The real divine intervention is Waltz leav-ing little mark on his impression of an infa-mous Bond villain, instead substituting the clever for the cliché. His backstory is weak and his delivery is weaker – you can’t tell if he’s evil, or smart or looking for revenge. His plan is so unclear – you almost want the cliché reveal.

His character reminded me of “Quantum of Solace” Dominic Greene: all evil, no hu-man.

The parallels between “Spectre” and “Quantum” don’t end there. These not-so-shining moments of the James Bond uni-verse both seem to be chasing the mysteri-ous – a staggering, deeply rooted conspir-acy of the rich and greedy – to ultimately share with the audience few real answers.

It left the audience in a depressing con-fusion that we could have in our own mun-dane lives, which is not why I wanted to see a James Bond film.

so the edge goes to the Bulls. Linebackers: Buffalo

Buffalo has one of the better linebacker groups in the MAC.

Senior linebacker Nick Gilbo is stout in the middle, placing second on the team in tackles with 76 to go with his 3.5 sacks on the season. Senior linebacker Okezie Alozie leads the team in sacks with five, while ju-nior Brandon Berry has a team-leading 80 tackles and nine tackles for losses.

Northern Illinois’ linebackers are led by senior Boomer Mays (62 tackles and one in-terception), junior Sean Folliard (47 tackles,

one sack and one interception) and fresh-man Renard Cheren (38 tackles and one sack) but Buffalo clearly has the more pro-ductive group. Secondary: Northern Illinois

Huskies sophomore cornerback Shawun Lurry may be the best cornerback in in the country, with seven interceptions and 19 pass deflections on the season with three games still remaining. Alongside Lurry are safeties Marlon Moore, a senior who leads the team with 67 tackles, and sophomore Brandon Mays, who has one interception and five pass deflections.

Buffalo has junior cornerback Boise Ross, who has two interceptions and an impres-

sive 16 pass breakups on the season, and the recent play of sophomore Ryan Williamson has helped stabilize one of Buffalo’s safety positions.

Northern Illinois ranks fourth in the MAC in pass defense, while Buffalo ranks seventh. But the play of Lurry alone is enough to give the Huskies the edge. Special teams: Buffalo

Senior punter Tyler Grassman was award-ed the MAC Special Teams Player of the Week for the second consecutive week. His punting has been stellar as of late, consis-tently punting the ball inside the 20-yard line and pinning opposition back into deep territory. Throw in freshman kicker Adam Mitcheson, and this may be the most dan-gerous special teams unit in the conference.

Northern Illinois has a solid duo of soph-omore kicker Christian Hagan and junior punter Jacob Ambrose, but we give the edge to Buffalo. Coaching: Northern Illinois

Leipold has the Division-III accolades, but Northern Illinois head coach Rod Car-ey has quietly put together a very impres-sive resume over his first three seasons in DeKalb, Illinois.

After taking over for former head coach Dave Doeren in the Orange Bowl during the 2012 season, Carey recorded back-to-back seasons with at least 10 victories and a MAC title in 2014. This year, he already has the Huskies bowl eligible yet again with six wins and looking to repeat as conference champions.

QUENTIN HAYNES SENIOR SPORTS EDITOR

The Buffalo football team (5-4, 3-2 Mid-American Conference) enters Wednesday night’s game at UB Stadium looking to be-come bowl eligible for just the third time since the program rejoined Division I in 1999.

But the Bulls will face the reigning MAC Champs, Northern Illinois (6-3, 4-1 MAC), which also knocked off formerly unbeaten No. 24 Toledo (7-1, 4-1 MAC) two weeks ago.

The Spectrum has your scouting report on who has the edge in Wednesday’s matchup. Quarterback: Draw

It’s about a dead heat between the two quarterbacks.

After a so-so start in head coach Lance Leipold’s offense, senior quarterback Joe Li-cata has thrown four touchdowns to two in-terceptions and completed more than 63 percent of his passes over the past three games. No coincidence – all three games have been Buffalo wins. On the season, Li-cata has 12 touchdown passes, eight inter-ceptions and 2066 passing yards.

On the other side, Huskies’ junior quar-terback Drew Hare has put together a sim-ilar season, completing 63 percent of his passes, 14 touchdown passes and four inter-ceptions and has also been a threat to run.

Running back: Northern Illinois

The Huskies have the best running back in this game, even with Buffalo’s dangerous 1-2 combo.

Northern Illinois junior Joel Bouagnon has been one of the better running backs in the country, running for 949 yards and 15 touchdowns on the season. Behind him, sophomore Jordan Huff has made the most of his carries, running for 388 yards and five touchdowns at 7.3 yards per carry in a re-serve role.

Buffalo’s two-man rushing attack of se-nior Anthone Taylor and junior Jordan Johnson is solid and the lynchpin of the Buffalo offense, with both backs having run for more than 600 yards this season, but the combination of Bouganon and Huff has been better. Wide receivers and tight ends: Buffalo

The Bulls enter the game with the better players on the outside. Senior tight end Matt Weiser has been a reliable target for Licata this season with 45 receptions on the season. On the outside, senior receivers Ron Wil-loughby (40 catches) and Marcus McGill (33 catches) have provided Licata with a trio of skill players, capable of taking over any game.

Northern Illinois has the top receiver in junior Kenny Galloday, who leads the Hus-kies with 801 yards and five touchdown re-

ceptions. But there’s more of a drop off in production after that, such as Huskies’ se-nior tight end, Desroy Maxwell, who has just 14 catches and 130 yards on the season.

We’ll give Buffalo the edge. Offensive line: Buffalo

The Buffalo offensive line has kept Lica-ta upright for the last three games and the likely return of sophomore guard Brandon Manosalvas should only assist the Bulls in keeping Northern Illinois’ defensive line in check.

Northern Illinois’ offensive line has al-lowed just 18 sacks on the season, four more than Buffalo on the year. It will be a bat-tle of two decent offensive lines, looking to keep their starting quarterbacks upright and open holes for their talented running backs.

But Buffalo gets the slight edge. Defensive line: Buffalo

Buffalo’s line has been on fire recently. Ju-nior defensive tackle Brandon Crawford has had a presence in the middle, with 27 tack-les, two sacks and three tackles for losses. Young defensive ends like sophomore De-mone Harris and freshman Charles Harris have both played well as of late.

Northern Illinois has a line consisting of senior defensive ends Perez Ford and Cam-eron Clinton-Earl and defensive tackles Co-rey Thomas, a junior, and William Lee, a sophomore. Buffalo ranks just above the Huskies in both sacks and rushing defense,

JORDAN GROSSMAN SENIOR SPORTS EDITOR

The Buffalo football team is one win away from being eligible for its second bowl ap-pearance in three years. All Buffalo has to do is win one of its remaining three games.

First up: perhaps the hardest opponent it will face all season.

The Bulls (5-4, 3-2 Mid-American Con-ference) seek their all-important sixth win of the season when they take on MAC West powerhouse Northern Illinois (6-3, 4-1 MAC) at UB Stadium Wednesday night. Buffalo, which has made just two bowl games since returning to Division I in 1999, and other FBS teams need six wins to be considered eligible for a bowl bid at season’s end.

But the Huskies, the reigning MAC Champs, will present a challenge.

“They’re just a complete football team,” said head coach Lance Leipold. “I think when you’re looking at the things we want to be in the long run, I think they have a lot of those thing going for them right now. Big physical offensive line, physical defense as a whole … it’s very apparent why they’ve been as consistent as they have … it’s a great challenge for us.”

Leipold doesn’t shy away from the Hus-kies’ talent. He acknowledges they’re a com-plete and advanced team. Northern Illi-nois ranks in the top-5 of nearly every of-fensive and defensive category in the MAC with many upperclassmen filling the starting slots.

But there is no player more decorated nor

impressive on the Huskies than their nation-ally acclaimed running back.

Junior Joel Bouagnon could be consid-ered for the Heisman Trophy if the selec-tion committee didn’t overlook Mid-Major programs. The Northern Illinois prospect is one of the most aggressive north-south runners in the nation and his statistics – in-cluding 15 touchdowns – back it up. His 949 yards rushing lead the MAC and are good for 26th in the nation.

But Buffalo has two power rushers.Junior running back Jordan Johnson and

senior running back Anthone Taylor have

been a huge lift Buffalo, which was previ-ously on a three-game losing streak before its recent successful run. Johnson, who filled in as the main back for an injured Tay-lor for two weeks, has been a revelation in the backfield.

A win over Kent State last week was the first time Taylor and Johnson were healthy in the same backfield in nearly a month. There’s no clear-cut leading back, according to Leipold. But he noted it’s a great prob-lem to have.

“We’ve never had it designed that, ‘This guy needs to get 75 percent of the carries

and 80 percent of the yards,’” Leipold said. “When games get close and you have fresh-er bodies and fresh legs in the fourth quar-ter, you have a chance to be successful. Both of those guys have handed it very well. Whoever has the hot hand, or there are cer-tain plays are certain situations that gonna put one guy in the game over the other, they seem to embrace that.”

Buffalo may also get one starting guard back. Sophomore Brandon Manosalvas will be a game-time decision to play after miss-ing last week. Leipold said he was practicing and practicing well.

But there wasn’t much good news about the other starting guard.

Senior Dillon Guy will miss the remainder of his season due to an apparent knee inju-ry, Leipold confirmed on Tuesday afternoon and called it unfortunate for Guy.

The Bulls are entering Wednesday with a huge confidence boost. Last Thursday, Buf-falo overcame an 11-point deficit in the fourth quarter to defeat Kent State (3-6, 2-3 MAC) to win its third straight game. Leipold wants his senior class to go out on top.

“As we strive for consistency, to contin-ue to be better and do the things we talk-ed about from the day we got here,” Leipold said, “and that is to give our seniors the best chance for success and put them in a posi-tion to put them in a bowl game and build a program that’s going to consistently be in bowl games.”

The game will be aired on ESPNU on Wednesday night. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m.
