Braves put Buffalo to the sword with a 63-7 victory in regular-season action on October tenth, 2026. The hosts made light work of a visitors' side that arrived in the worst possible mood. To be fair, Buffalo had only one game on their record — and it ended 88-0 against Huskies.
And here's the thing about this scoreline: it tells you everything about where both teams stand. The visitors had not scored a single point in their previous outing and carried that momentum into Saturday's clash. Meanwhile, the Braves had been trading goals in their recent fixtures — 59-63, 43-40, 53-51 — showing they could fire but also leak.
By then, the pattern was already clear. The home side treated the match as more of a training exercise than a contest. Three losses and two wins in their last five games had given them confidence against an opponent that looked completely out of sorts. Buffalo's defence, already rattled from the Huskies encounter, simply folded.
The final tally — 63 points for the hosts, seven for the visitors — reflects a game where one side ran away with it from the opening whistle. The Braves showed no mercy against a team that had nothing to build on. Seven points suggests Buffalo managed some token response, but the gulf in quality was never in doubt.
What this result means for the table remains to be seen, but the statement of intent from the home side cannot be missed. They will make life awkward for anyone facing them in the coming weeks. Buffalo, meanwhile, need to find something — anything — before the next fixture.
