Buffalo entered the national rankings on Monday after its win at West Virginia last week (more on that below), and the Bulls debuted with another road win at Southern Illinois by a 62-53 score. The Bulls pulled away in the second half after trailing most of the first, showing they’re far more than a three-man team-Montell McRae tied for scoring honors with 11 and Davonta Jordan added nine points plus five assists. The Salukis, meanwhile, played without their leader Armon Fletcher, a huge loss even as injuries are nothing new for SIU, having affected the team heavily each of the last two years.

Loyola-Chicago—KenPom: #57. AP Top 25: #44 (“Others Receiving Votes” category)Basketball signing day roundup: Loyola lands pair of local players in 3-man class--Chicago Tribune
Summary: The Ramblers can keep the momentum going offensively, but can they continue to defend at a high level?
What the experts say: Loyola established itself as a top-tier mid-major with its unlikely Final Four run last March, and they return Clayton Custer, Cameron Krutwig and Marques Townes, arguably their three best offensive players. Last year’s team also played great defense, so it appears that head coach Porter Moser is building a powerhouse in Chicago.
What the analytics say:The true aberration a season ago came with its 17th-ranked defense, as Moser hadn’t coached a top 100 defense in any of his previous six years at the school. The Ramblers should fall back to earth defensively this season and won’t necessarily run away with an MVC that could have as many as five other teams among the top 100. A trip to the NCAA Tournament certainly isn’t guaranteed, especially with an early loss to Furman already on their resume.

NEWS AND NOTESHefferman: Salukis can say they're 2-0 in one category--The Southern Illinoisan
...
-Most notably, Buffalo picked up another big true road win at Southern Illinois. If you don’t follow Under the Radar that may not sound all that exciting, but Southern Illinois is really good this year and may not lose at home for the rest of the season. If they do, it won’t be many. It is not an easy place to win, and Buffalo beat them rather comfortably.
