Dont know a lot about either team other than Toledo is awful.  Start four freshman and a sophomore and have been sitting around in Buffalo since Tuesday.

KenPom has it at 24 points and Im a degenerate stuck at work in this cold ass weather looking for something to follow this afternoon.

Go Buffalo!

Any thoughts?

In the same situation, but I think this game is a coin flip. Buffalo should win by around 20, but who knows with that many points.

hard to think Buffalo will be that geared up for this game. Toledo is 4-17 overall and 1-6 in conference. Not exactly the kind of game that'll have the Buffalo players too fired up. Factor in the sluggishness of the early start and they might just go through the motions and win by 8-10 and call it a day. GL with whatever you decide though

I thought about the uninspired play from Buffalo, but I was also thinking Toledo just wants to play the game and get back to Ohio after leaving early to beat the snow and then sitting around an extra day to play the game after the postponement yesterday.  I guess I compare it to last weeks George Mason game when they were laying 18.5 to Towson and just destroyed them in the second half and Baylor just laying down in the second half against OU yesterday.

Fair point, it's all in how you look at I guess. 19 just seems like a lot of points for a game with a bunch of question marks. Sure Buffalo is the much better team, but if the much better team covered every time we'd all be rich.

beghawk...the same GMU game comes to mind...

toledo is 1-6 in conf play. toledo lost their last game by 17pts, they

were 18.5 pt dogs...they just made the cut there. Kind of hard to lay down +19.5pts for todays game.

As bad as Toledo is they are only 3.5 games from the top of the conference. These are college kids I don't buy the argument that they just want to get back. They are competitors just like any team is. Buffalo knows they should win and if anything they'll come out sloppy knowing they have a big game on Saturday on the road against Ball St.

I don't think Buffalo wins this by 20 points. Don't be surprised if they call off the dogs in the second half and just grind out the game for a 15 point win.

I've seen plenty of college kids who at times don't seem to give a rats ass about the game.
