Buffalo survived Old Dominion and walked out with a win. That set up UB with a 2-2 out of conference record coming out of conference play. For a team that had a whole sale coaching change in June, and who dealt with the portal taking quite a few components this is not a bad spot to be in.
Maurice Linguist is positioned to become the first coach who leads the Bulls to a winning season since Bob Deming took over the team in 1968. But to do that he will have to find five MAC wins in the coming eight games.
