- Pick/market: Chance Morrow has taken the start of the season by storm!

- For Buffalo at Penn State, meteorologist Joe Murgo forecasts south-southeast winds of 10-20 mph throughout the game, with roughly 68 degrees at the noon kickoff and temperatures near 70 during play. This is the article's pregame weather forecast, not an observed game condition or a quantified scoring adjustment. - Murgo gives Penn State-Buffalo a chance of a shower or thunderstorm by the end of the game but explicitly does not call it likely. Wind is expected to persist; a rain-affected game or lightning delay is not confirmed.

- Buffalo coach Pete Lembo said Elijah strained his knee at FIU and did not practice Tuesday. Jason Wright took first-team reps and would start if the situation did not resolve later in the week. Wright showed explosive-play ability but needs cleaner operation and a better feel for live pressure; Lembo did not announce a permanent quarterback change. - Lembo said Buffalo running back Terrence has an arm fracture and is expected to miss four to six weeks. Burch, McNeel and Nino Hill must absorb more backfield work, reducing their special-teams availability. He emphasized pass protection and consistent off-ball execution from the replacement backs, not just their rushing ability. - Buffalo missed 20 tackles at FIU, including a short third-down completion that became a 68-yard touchdown. Lembo identified option routes, glances and RPOs as problems for the secondary, while the offense also failed to run efficiently. The veteran defense has specific coverage and tackling corrections to make; late improvement did not erase the earlier explosive-play breakdowns.

- TE: Tight end Clint Walker credits his hard work ethic to his small-town upbringing.

- WR: Matt Campbell had high praise for Buffalo's coach and top wide receiver ahead of Saturday's matchup.
