Coach John Cooper on Buffalo: “Their man offense is really a hybrid of the Princeton offense. They execute it, they know what they’re trying to do, and they stick to it. I think they’re playing with more confidence now than the first time we played them. They didn’t shoot the ball well against us, and that’s not who they normally are. I like their team. I like their pieces. I think now you’re starting to see the team that they really are.”
