My hunch is that they are using the athletic program to brand the university as a whole as "New York" and that the rest will eventually fall away unless there's a huge outcry from Stony Brook, Binghamton et al.

The school has publicly stated that's the plan.

If you go to their board you'll find comment after comment referring to themselves as the "University of New York" or just "New York". They seem to believe that playing Ohio State on national TV will help springboard them into an eventual ACC or even B1G offer based on the exposure. lol

According to the Wikipedia entry for SUNY-Buffalo:

Buffalo has consistently placed in the top cluster of U.S. public research universities and among the overall top 30 research universities according to the Center for Measuring University Performance[8] ... In the 2012-2013 edition of "World University Rankings", Times Higher Education ranked UB at 198, making it one of the top universities in the world.

Athletic performance has been woeful, but from an academic perspective this school matches up well with most major conferences.

Excepting, of course, the SEC; they'd need to lower their game substantially to fit in there.

I replied in the University Rankings thread as it's more appropriate for the discussion.
