Yes, you clicked on the right article. Saturday’s game between the Buffalo Bandits and Albany FireWolves was almost an exact replica of Buffalo’s season opener last year.

Going into the final game of the regular season, the Buffalo Bandits and Albany FireWolves were in two totally different positions. Buffalo sat in first place in the East Conference and looked to lock up the league’s top spot with a win. Albany, who clinched a playoff spot in last year’s playoffs, were simply playing for moral victories at this point this year. A huge question around Buffalo was them…
