Loser of its previous four contests, the Miami men’s basketball team needed a morale booster heading into the final two weeks of the regular season.

It got one in dramatic fashion Tuesday with a tight 84-81 victory over the MAC-leading Buffalo Bulls (20-8, 12-3 MAC) at Millett Hall.

“This was just a war,” MU head coach Jack Owens said. “I believe [Buffalo has] a team that can not only go to the NCAA Tournament, but win games. So for us to get this win, with the way we were able to finish this game and have everyone contribute to the win, I’m just happy for the guys.
