The preseason hype for UB Men’s Basketball continues today as the MAC releases its preseason accolades.
Because of the large return of veteran talent, Buffalo has been unsurprisingly selected to win the MAC East Division. This is the first time since 2002 that a team has received more than 200 points in the poll.
Buffalo has also been selected as the favorite to win the MAC Tournament. Eastern Michigan and Toledo are the only two teams with more than one vote with three apiece.
Also of note in the preseason poll is Central Michigan, where a CMU beat writer has once again picked the Chippewas to win the MAC West and the MAC Tournament.
