Tuesday's matchup is shaping up to be a scrappy matchup: Ohio haven't given up the ball easily this season, having only averaged 10 turnovers per game. It's a different story for Buffalo, though, as they've been averaging 15.3 turnovers per game. Given Ohio's sizeable advantage in that area, Buffalo will need to find a way to close that gap.
