University at Buffalo tailback Brandon Thermilus ran it 11 times for 126 yards and two scores and added a 29-yard touchdown reception the Bulls beat Miami (Ohio) 42-17 in a Mid-American Conference football contest on national television Wednesday.

It was UB’s first-ever win at Miami’s Yager Stadium.

Quarterback Zach Maynard also had a big day for UB (4-7 overall, 2-5 MAC), completing 13-of-18 passes for 136 yards and a touchdown. He also ran for a score.

Wideout Terrell Jackson tossed a touchdown pass to tight end Jesse Rack and reserve running back Jeffvon Hill ran for a score late in the game.

UB, which led 21-3 at the half, accumulated 406 yards of total offense and did not turn the ball over.

Miami, meanwhile, had two critical turnovers as the RedHawks dropped to 1-11 overall and 1-7 in the MAC.
