Buffalo beats Albany 21-17 early Friday after a rain delay that holds up the start by about 2 3/4 hours. Elijah Holmes throws three touchdown passes to Chance Morrow, including a score with 4:23 left that helps Buffalo secure the lead.
Holmes completes 26 of 47 passes for 189 yards. Morrow catches touchdown passes from 9, 4 and 5 yards out. The game includes a late Albany push: a run by Rahshan La Mons gets Buffalo into a second-and-goal situation at the 1 with 1:26 remaining, but a false start backs Albany up outside the 5.
Both outlets describe the same core sequence—Holmes’ three TD connections to Morrow, the rain delay at kickoff, and Buffalo’s late defensive stand as Albany attempts to score.
