Two games ago against Morgan State, they won 82-73 and in the last game against NC A&T, Buffalo secured the 82-81 victory. At halftime, the game was tied, and in the second half, they scored enough to come out on top. There were four different players that put up at least 12 points.

The offense is ranked 158th while the defense is ranked 343rd. 

Penn State Fell Short

Penn State has played well overall to start the season, but they did drop the game on Tuesday against Clemson. Penn State only scored 31 points in the second half and that wasn’t enough as they ended up losing. Adrian Baldwin did have a strong game putting up 20 points, 11 assists, and three rebounds. There were three different players that put up at least 11 points. Penn State on the season is averaging 91.9 points while their defense is giving up 68 points per game. The offense is ranked 3rd in the league while the defense is ranked 113th. Guard Eli Rice has been shut down for the rest of the season. Penn State will meet Purdue, Rutgers, Coppin State, Drexel, and Penn after this one.

Buffalo vs Penn State Prediction

Buffalo is going to find success here. Penn State’s defense was a major problem in the last game and it’s going to be a major problem again here. Buffalo on the season is averaging 77.4 points per game and they are going to have no issue getting the job done here. Penn State will score, but not enough to pull away in this game. Back Buffalo to cover the spread. Don’t be shocked if they find a way to win this game.
