Offenhamer’s first season was a prelude of good things to come for the Bulls, as he would end his career with UB’s best career winning percentage. The year 1958 will forever be remembered as one of the greatest seasons in UB football history. On the strength of an 8-1 record that included victo- ries over Harvard and Columbia, UB claimed the prestigious Lambert Cup, emblematic of Eastern small college supremacy. Team captains Nick Bottini and Lou Reale accepted the award on the Ed Sullivan Show on December 14 of that year before a national audience. The Bulls also earned an invitation to the Tangerine Bowl in Orlando, Florida but declined the offer to protest the discriminatory policies of the bowl’s stadium, which refused to allow black athletes to compete on its field. After posting an 8-1 record and finishing second in the Lambert Cup competition to Delaware in 1959, UB moved up to University Division status in 1960. UB football made great strides in the early 1960s with stars like quar- terback John “Long John” Stofa and defensive tackle Gerry Philbin. Stofa rewrote UB’s passing records during his career while Philbin was named to the All-East team and played in the North-South and Coaches All-American post-season games. Both Stofa and Philbin would go on to play in the NFL following their UB careers. UB reached another pinnacle in 1962, being recognized as “major” by the NCAA.
