More times that not this season, the Buffalo men’s basketball team has been plagued by its inability to convert on the basics of the game.
Three games into Mid-American Conference play and it seems Buffalo can’t get out of that same rut.
The Bulls (8-8, 1-2 MAC), despite grabbing 49 rebounds, turned the ball over 23 times and shot less than 40 percent in a 81-69 loss to Eastern Michigan (10-6, 2-1 MAC) Tuesday night in Ypsilanti, Michigan.
The Bulls’ third MAC game of the season was tight through the first half, but it was broken open via a three-minute, nine-point swing in favor of the Eagles from 10:58 to 7:38 left in the second half.
