For only the second time in UB's history, they have defeated a ranked football opponent.

UB entered the game as a heavy underdog to Nothern Illinois University, which was coming off an improbable upset with Notre Dame the week before. After that win, many expected NUI to steamroll UB. However, that wasn't the case.

Buffalo QB C.J. Ogbonna threw for a touchdown, linebacker Shaun Dolac made a key interception, and kicker Upton Bellenfant made all 3 field goal attempts, including in OT, as the Bulls upset the #23 ranked Huskies 23-20.

It was a shocking win for UB, which is off to a great start at 3-1 and sits atop the MAC.

Watcht the highlights below.

Up next, UB plays another Huskies team away: the UConn Huskies. That game is Saturday, 12 pm on CBS Sports Network.
