The Bulls come into this contest with lofty expectations as they are anticipated to finish first in the MAC East and ultimately return to the big dance come March. Last year, the Bulls fell short when Kent State took them down in the MAC Championship. The Bulls delight in return of the 2016-2017 MAC defensive player of the year, guard Dontay Caruthers.

Last year, Canisus earned an invitation to the CIT and made an early exit when Samford knocked them out in the first round. This was a part of a larger 1-6 finish that the Golden Griffins underwent to conclude their campaign. Overall, the MAAC constituent is regarded as a middle of the pack outfit. However, the Golden Griffins managed to earn a win in the regular season over the two-time reigning champion, Iona.

Canisius Golden Griffins at Buffalo Bulls Prediction
There is a lot of appeal in backing the Golden Griffins here be that they shocked the Bulls last year on their own court. However, some argue that the Bulls won’t get caught napping again. Buffalo is on a mission this year to get back to the MAC Championship and take back what it feels was rightfully theirs until Kent State shocked the conference. However, they must first get past a team that has had their number. While Buffalo has their eyes on greener pastures, it is likely that Canisius is focused strictly on this game. Thus, there is a chance that the Bulls will bite the bullet yet again. Canisius has plenty of breathing room to come in under this number but they likely won’t need them.
Free Pick:
Take Canisius +8.5 (tech error - late post)
