ATHENS, Ohio - The Ohio University men's basketball team will showcase its skills in front of a national television audience on March 1, as the Bobcats' showdown with Buffalo at the Convocation Center has been selected to air live on ESPNU. Due to television scheduling, the time of the game has been moved from 2 p.m. ET to noon.

The contest will mark the 12th time since the beginning of the 2006-07 season that an Ohio men's basketball game has been available on the ESPN family of networks. The tilt with UB will also represent the fifth time that either the Bobcat football or men's basketball team has appeared on an ESPN outlet during the 2008-09 school year.

Tickets with the original game time will still be good for entrance on the day of the game.
