Season tickets for the 1995 University at Buffalo football season are
now on sale to UB faculty and staff. 
    This year, Athletics is offering three season ticket packages, as
well as a payroll deduction plan to pay for tickets.
	The V.I.P. Plan is $84 and includes free parking adjacent to
UB Stadium and chairback seating at midfield; the Field Goal Plan is
$60, or seven games for the price of six, a savings of 29 percent off
the game-day ticket price; and the Baby Bull Plan is $30 for children
ages 12 and under, a savings of 64 percent off the game-day ticket
price.
	The action continues off the field, too, with promotions that
include the human slingshot, the Fair Catch at the Half contest and
fireworks at all night games. 
	Coached by former Penn State assistant and UB alumnus Craig
Cirbus, the Bulls will take on five members of the Yankee Conference
and a pair of Patriot League members. A game against defending NCAA
Division I-AA champion Youngstown State highlights UB's road games
this season.

33-14 in their last meeting in 1993.
