• History

  The University of Buffalo played its first game of football in 1984, falling to Hobart 12 to six. The program was suspended from 1903 to 1915 becuase of a lack of money and personnel. In 1960, the Bulls moved up to the university division, where they stayed until 1962, when the NCAA recognized the team as major. The football program was again suspended in the 1970s, due to financial problems. The team played in Division III for several years, then moved up to Division I in 1993. The Bulls, who had played primarily as an independent since their founding, joined the Mid-American Conference in 1999.Official Site: History (4.1 MB)
