Eastern Michigan is 2-8 against Buffalo since January of 2018 but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Saturday. Both will face off in a Mid American battle at 2:00 p.m. ET at George Gervin GameAbove Center. Coming in fresh off a victory as the underdog, the Eagles will stroll into this one as the favorite.

Eastern Michigan is headed in fresh off scoring the most points they have all season. They walked away with a 94-87 win over Ohio on Tuesday. Having run the score up that high, both teams might be doing some extra defensive drills very soon.

Eastern Michigan's win was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Jalen Terry, who went 6 for 10 en route to 17 points plus seven assists. Those seven assists gave Terry a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Da'Sean Nelson, who went 9 for 14 en route to 21 points plus seven rebounds and six assists.

Meanwhile, after soaring to 85 points the game before, Buffalo faltered in their contest on Tuesday. It's going to take some time for them to recover from the 90-58 bruising that Akron dished out on Tuesday.

Buffalo's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Ryan Sabol, who earned 15 points, and Noah Batchelor, who had eight points along with five rebounds and two steals.
