“We needed this game, we needed to play Bronco Basketball and I felt like we did that today… this was one of the best teams we have played all year and might be the best team we have played in University Arena. We needed to be physical, defend well, rebound well, and we did that today against a quality opponent.”
“We watched film and we felt that Buffalo plays very similar to Akron and we needed to be physical… Our defense was very physical today, because we kept our turnovers down and that allowed us to set up our defense… Taylor gave us really big minutes, Mario played well and
Von Washington hit those two threes… Our bench was huge today”
Buffalo Head Coach Bobby Hurley
“Western is a good team, we knew it would be a great challenge… they were more physical then us and it paid dividends, looking at the box score there isn't an area we won today… the crowd was good and had good energy, there players made some plays early and the crowd got into it… we left a lot on the table, we had a lot of good looks we just didn't make enough plays on offense… can't really have a game where you have 3 assists we didn't do a good job with that.”
