BUFFALO, NY – Eight University at Buffalo football players were named to the All-MAC football team, the league announced on Thursday. The Bulls placed four on the first team – the most since 2020.
Linebacker Red Murdock, offensive lineman Trevor Brock and wide receivers Nik McMillan and Victor Snow were named to the first team. Offensive lineman Tyler Doty and punter Dylan Drennan were named to the second team as was Snow as a punt returner. Defensive tackle Junior Poyser and kicker Jack Howes were named to the third team.
Murdock was a first-team selection for the second straight season. The graduate linebacker led the MAC and ranked second in the nation in tackles with 142. It was the eighth-best single-season tackle total in program history. He added 13.5 tackles for loss, five sacks and six forced fumbles. He finished his career by setting the NCAA record for career forced fumbles with 17.
An All-MAC Third Team selection in 2024, Brock was a first-team pick in 2025. Playing primarily tackle, Brock did spend some time at guard this past season. He helped block for an offense that ranked third in the MAC in overall passing offense and first in passing in conference games.
Snow was a third-team selection in 2024 before earning first-team honors this season. The redshirt-junior ranked fourth in the MAC in receiving with 62 catches for 815 yards and a team-best eight touchdowns. Snow was also named to the All-MAC Second Team as a punt returner. He averaged 10.65 yards per punt return - sixth in program history for single season. His 65-yard punt return touchdown at Bowling Green was UB's first since 2015.
Fellow receiver McMillan had a breakout season for the Bulls with 62 receptions for 981 yards. His 981 receiving yards were tops in the MAC. He became the first player in program history to record six straight 100-yard receiving games.
Doty was an All-MAC Second Team selection after being a third team pick in 2023 and 2024. He is the first offensive lineman in program history to be named All-MAC three times.
Drennan was named to the second team after ranking third in the MAC in punting. His 44.75 yards per punt average was a single-season school record. Of his 65 punts, 16 sailed over 50 yards and 25 were downed inside the 20-yard line.
An All-MAC Third Team selection, Poyser enjoyed his best season as a Bull. The defensive tackle led the team in sacks with 5.5 and added 31 tackles and a forced fumble.
Howes was also a third-team selection after his lone season with the Bulls. The graduate kicker converted 14 of his 17 field goal attempts and all 30 extra point tries. His 14 field goals were sixth best for a single season in school history.
