On Wednesday the Northern Illinois Huskies will travel to take on the Buffalo Bulls.
The Northern Illinois Huskies (6-3) enter with four straight wins while the Buffalo Bulls (5-4) have three straight themselves.
The Huskies (6-3, 4-1 MAC) are riding a four game winning streak in conference play and are fresh off a 32-27 stunning win over Toledo on the road. Ryan Graham stepped in for the injured Drew Hare and led Northern Illinois on two fourth quarter touchdown drives to rally past the Rockets to earn their sixth consecutive victory over Toledo. The victory at Toledo marked the Huskies first win over a top 25 team since Nov. 30, 2012 when NIU won the MAC championship game with a 44-37 double-overtime victory over No. 18 Kent State. Receivers Kenny Golladay and Tommylee Lewis put forth a big effort for the Huskies combining for 13 receptions for 253 yards and two touchdowns. The two became the first Huskie duo, and third in school history, to post 100-yard receiving performances in the same game.

The Bulls (5-4, 3-2 MAC) are also hot, winning three straight games (all against the MAC) after losing their first two. Last time out, Buffalo squeezed out an 18-17 win over Kent State. The Bulls faced a 17-6 deficit, until Joe Licata led Buffalo on two fourth quarter touchdown drives -- a 29-yard pass to Ron Willoughby and an 8-yard pass to Matt Weiser -- to put them in the lead. Licata finished hitting on 25-of-39 pass attempts for 190 yards in addition to the two touchdowns. The Bulls erased their first 11-point deficit to win for the first time since a 40-34 win at Bowling Green in 2008.
