Wright accounts for 4TDs to send Buffalo past Miami (Ohio) 34-31 in OT

Jason Wright of Buffalo threw for 358 yards and scored four touchdowns in a thrilling overtime victory over Miami of Ohio on Tuesday night. The victory came after a grueling 12-play, 80-yard drive that tied the game at 31-all in the final minutes of regulation. Wright also ran for two touchdowns, while Buffalo's Chance Morrow added two scores on the ground and via a 4-yard pass.

Miami, led by Caleb Heavener with 154 passing yards and a touchdown, and D Shawntae Jones with 117 rushing yards, could not overcome a strong Buffalo effort. Kellan McLaughlin's missed 45-yard field goal attempt sealed the win for the Bills. The win extended Buffalo's season record to 6-3, 4-1 in the Mid-American Conference, while Miami's record fell to 5-4, 3-2.

Buffalo will travel to face Ball State on November 11, while Miami will host Ohio State on November 10.
