Buffalo at Northern Illinois

The Bulls have lost nine straight yet are somehow expected to keep this one close on the road, where they are 0-10 this season. We aren't buying it. They are off two straight OT losses which does not leave them in a good mindset for this one. They have to be asking themselves how they can possibly win. That kind of questioning breeds more losing. Buffalo allows 80 ppg on the road while shooting 38.1%. NIU is terrible offensively but they do hit 42.4% from teh field at home while holding foes to 63.1 ppg here. We like this spot to fade a terrible, slumping, losing team on the road without having to lay much.
