Quickzips Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Looks like this could end up being the first big upset of the tourney so far. Anyone have any insight as to what is going on up there? I have to believe Miami is probably just running into a buzzsaw with Buffalo hitting a lot of tough shots. Miami is never going to score a lot of points themselves, but they also don't give up a lot of points. If they are losing like this you have to assume that Buffalo is just hitting a lot of shots. I could be wrong though. Quote

ZachTheZip Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Only four players from Miami have scored any points. It's hard to win a game like that. Quote

jeaglet1 Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 I was at this game, and since I didn't have a rooting interest in it, feel I can be pretty objective. Buffalo got the short end fo the majority of the calls. Buffalo pushes the lead to nine, they call a foul on a Bramos three for a 4 point play. Second half, UB pushes the lead back to 9, and get called for a couple charges. Buffalo wanted the game more. They made Miami play a full game, which is something they didnt think they had to. They will probably be tired for tongihts game with OU. If Miami plays like that again, they'll be headed home. Quote
