Down one-point with 6.2 seconds remaining, Ohio’s Jason Carter received the inbounds pass with his back to the basket and took one dribble before leaning in for a one-handed teardrop. It’s the go-to shot that he’s hit countless times, but this shot rolled off the rim as Ohio fell 83-79 to the Buffalo Bulls Tuesday night at the Convocation Center.
“I got to my right-hand hook and just didn’t get a friendly roll,” Carter said postgame. The freshman led Ohio with 19 points on eight of 13 shooting and nine rebounds tonight.
The Bobcats (18-10, 10-7 Mid-American) could have clinched a first-round bye and the No.
