UB Bulls defeat Eastern Michigan 80-70 after slow start

No team wants to find itself down 15 point less than 10 minutes into the game.

That's where the Buffalo men’s basketball team, winners of five of its last six, found itself Saturday afternoon against Eastern Michigan.

But the Bulls (14-9, 7-3 Mid-American Conference) pulled off an impressive comeback to beat Eastern Michigan (11-12, 3-7 MAC) 80-70 in Alumni Arena in front of an announced crowd of 3,417. They didn’t take their first lead of the game until there was 3:57 remaining in the game, but still got their fourth straight win and moved into second in the MAC East.
