Luckily, Toledo has the depth and experience, where there have been others to step up enough to put Toledo over the top. Wiard has also been struggling. Buffalo did a great job hitting threes, avoiding fouls, and preventing Toledo from getting second chance points for much of the game. I think Kent St played in similar fashion last time. Should be another tight game on Friday. Survive and move on.

Survive and move on is what they have done the last 5 games. Unfortunately that strategy will catch up with you eventually. These games come down to a couple of plays in the last minute. That block by Lockett at the end could have been called a foul and two shots for Buffalo to win the game. Really need to not let the game margins to be that small. They need to play aggressively from the start of the game. But recently they have been stagnant on offense throwing the ball around the perimeter with no movement.

Agree with you. Too many times there was a fast break and the team slowed the ball down around the three point line. Take it to the freakin' basket.
