Buffalo vs Butler Prediction
The Buffalo Bulls are off to a terrible start through 8 games, and they’ve made little progress at either end of the floor to suggest a turnaround is possible. Buffalo is also 2-5 ATS, so it’s not even covering numbers in the undergo role. The Butler Bulldogs have beaten some respectable teams and have shown major flashes at both ends of the floor. Big number, but the form of buffalo and Butler are in different zip codes. I’ll lay the chalk with the Bulldogs.
