Tough way for seniors to go out, but hats off to the Bulls on a great season. And hats off to Texas Tech as well, a well coached and terrific defensive team. They’re gonna be a tough out.

I would say this team performed right where they were supposed to.... which is pretty lofty, especially considering the number of 1st round wins in the last 50 years of WNY basketball history.  They crushed a team from a power 5 conference, and also sat down the coach who spurned them.  Outstanding season record, won on the road at Syracuse and West Virginia (although that one isnt quite as impressive any more).  Won the MAC.  Were ranked in the top 25 for nearly the entire season.  Pretty awesome.   They were hoping to get to Sweet 16.  Fell short, but they ran into a buzz saw team, Ranked 9th in the country (i think), playing close to home.

 

More importantly, the team percolated into the consciousness of WNY sports fans.  They started to show strong attendance, even when students were between semesters.  A couple more good seasons and we could see this really take hold/root.
