Miami Ohio vs Buffalo Prediction
Miami Ohio made light work of Buffalo in early January and is easily the better team entering this matchup. However, Miami Ohio has some recent hiccups, which include losses to Ohio, Western Michigan, and Eastern Michigan. Miami Ohio has seen seven of its eight losses this season come on the road. Buffalo is coming off a huge upset win over Toledo and this is senior night for Dunn, who torched Toledo for 26 points on 10-14 shooting. If that’s a sign of things to come for this game, Buffalo would have its chances to steal another one. Give me Buffalo and the points.
