BUFFALO, N.Y. – The University at Buffalo men's basketball team (0-0, 0-0 MAC) will officially open up the 2022-23 season on Monday night as the Bulls host the two-time defending Patriot League champions Colgate Raiders (0-0, 0-0 Patriot League). Tip off from Alumni Arena will be at 7 p.m. and will be streamed on ESPN+.
Buffalo is coming off a 95-66 victory in its lone exhibition game against Deamen. 11 different Bulls scored in that game, including a game-high 16 points from sophomore Curtis Jones. There are many new Bulls on the roster, but the blue collar attitude still remains. The team continues to preach defense, as they forced 21 turnovers against Daemen.
Colgate went 23-12 last season and 16-2 in the Patriot League, winning the conference title for the second consecutive season. The Raiders took it to the No. 14 team in the land, Wisconsin Badgers, in the First Round of the NCAA Tournament. The Raiders dropped the game, 67-60 in the Midwest Regional.
Buffalo is 16-39 all-time against Colgate. The Bulls were victorious in the last meeting between the two programs on Dec. 1, 2004, by a score of 74-62.
Following Monday night, the Bulls will remain at home as they host James Madison on Saturday at 1 p.m.
