Preview Roundups
March 08, 2019
Bowling Green at Buffalo 6:00 PM ET
The five seniors for No. 20 Buffalo will look to finish off the regular season in style Friday in a Mid-American Conference game against visiting Bowling Green. CJ Massinburg, Nick Perkins, Jeremy Harris, Dontay Caruthers and Montell McRae have a chance to finish unbeaten at home while setting a school record for wins in a season but to do so, the Bulls must avenge an earlier loss to the Falcons.
Minnesota at Maryland 7:00 PM ET
Minnesota looks to strengthen its case for an NCAA Tournament bid when it visits No. 24 Maryland in the Big Ten regular season finale for both teams. The Golden Gophers have won two straight games, including a crucial 73-69 upset victory over ninth-ranked Purdue on Tuesday, after losing six of their previous seven contests, to land on the right side of the tournament bubble, and can likely earn a spot in March Madness by avenging an 82-67 defeat to the Terrapins on Jan. 8.
Miami-Florida at Virginia Tech 7:00 PM ET
Virginia Tech lost its shot at a double bye in the ACC Tournament on Tuesday as the 16th-ranked Hokies came up short in their winner-take-all battle with Florida State for the No. 4 seed, falling to the Seminoles 73-64 in overtime. Virginia Tech will now look to regroup as it finishes its regular season at home Friday against a Miami team coming off a solid 76-63 victory over Pittsburgh.
