So UB’s loss to Kent earlier in the week was somewhat softened by a Bowling Green victory over the Flashes. The Bulls are three games out in front of Kent and Miami in the East and a one game lead, along with a tie breaker, over Toledo for the conference title.
With eight games to play the Bulls are four games ahead of the teams playing campus rounds, making the magic number to a bye 4 games.
Buffalo would get the winner of the EMU / CMU campus game, played at Eastern Michigan because of the head to head tie breaker.
