University of Buffalo

Check this out. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/eticket/story?page=buffalo58. It's about the University of Buffalo and how it didn't accept a bowl bid because their African American athletes couldnt't play in 1958.

  4. This is admirable. Especially since Buffalo is not a school that's known for getting a lot of Bowl games. THis could of meant a lot of much needed exposure (therefore money) for a small school. But they turned it down for a cause they believe in. Much respect to Buffalo
