Tulane vs Buffalo Key Stats
The Green Wave started the season with a perfect record of 3-0, but since then, they have gone 2-3, winning once against the Rhode Island Rams and losing another against Western Kentucky. They have not been a dependable team to back up, covering the spread only once all year in an 89-67 home victory.
Jalen Cook is now healthy after only being able to participate in three games due to injury. The sophomore guard, who excelled last season, has been spectacular in his three outings, scoring at least 23 points in two of the three games and averaging 20.7 PPG.
The Bulls want to win their sixth game in a row. Before their current winning streak, they had a losing streak of four straight games. In two of their four victories during the streak, they were the underdogs, including a 83-66 victory at home over St. Bonaventure in a game in which the Bulls were given a two-point betting advantage.
They are predicted to finish in the middle of the pack in the MAC this season despite being ranked 164th in the country for efficiency. This year, the Bulls have a 1-2 record on neutral courts. They average 76.3 points per game and rely on their offense to win games. A shortcoming of the defense is that it allows an average of 74.4 points per game on 41.2% shooting.
Tulane vs Buffalo Betting Prediction
After a strong start, the Tulane Green Wave have been lackluster recently, winning only two of their last five games. In each of their three losses during that time period, including a humiliating home loss to the Fordham Rams, they were the favorites.
The Bulls are on fire right now, winning four straight games thanks to a bombardment of scores. The Bulls have the offensive skills to match the Green Wave. Take the Bulls to cover the spread.
Pick: Buffalo Bulls +7 (-115)
