Bucknell

[Blackman]

Up 7 over Pitt with 15 minutes left, would love to see them hold on. They've got a brand new arena, just became a scholarship program, this could be the landmark win they need to grab recruits in PA.

Little mojo for the alma mater.

they looked solid this week at st joes shooting 68 % from the field and winning by 7.

Yup, good group of jump shooters. Wish I could find lines on them because they'd be a very solid dog. Almost pulled the upset vs Mich State last year but crapped the bed at the foul line late. Should find their way into the tourny this year via the Patriot League tournament.

Up 3 with 4 minutes to go.

did they get it done? seeing up 1 with 2.0 left?

69-66 Final -- biggest win for a Patriot school probably ever in their 12 year history.

Bucknell has some team.Their coach Pat Flannery is great.Unreal speaker.Talk about motivating.He's kids play 110% all the time.
He was a great pt gd at Bucknell.Was a great coach in D-3 at Lebanon Valley yrs ago.
What a nice win.But they earned it.I know they have Holy Cross coming up.HC can play too.
Vermont and Bucknell are both two tough teams that can knock off most mid majors.If they were both in the MAAC they would be 1 and 2.Or many other confs.
