BUFFALO, NY – The University at Buffalo, in conjunction with the Mid-American Conference, announced the 2024 football schedule on Tuesday. It will be the first season under the leadership of new head coach Pete Lembo.

The Bulls open the season with three straight non-conference games, beginning with the opener against Lafayette on Thursday, August 29 at UB Stadium. It will be the first meeting between the teams since 1998.
On Sept. 7, the Bulls will travel to Missouri. It will be the second meeting between the schools and the first since 2008. UB will return home to host Massachusetts on Sept. 14 in the final non-conference matchup between the schools before the Minutemen join the MAC in 2025.
UB will begin conference play at Northern Illinois on Sept. 21 before closing out non-conference play at Connecticut on Sept. 28.
After a bye week on Oct. 5, Buffalo will conclude the season with seven straight MAC games. The Bulls will host Toledo on Oct. 12 and Western Michigan in a homecoming matchup on Oct. 19.
The Bulls will then hit the road for consecutive games at Ohio (Oct. 26) and at Akron (Nov. 2).
