In response to jkrun80
I was curious to see which game would be more lopsided, Lehigh-Holy Cross or Bucknell-Fordham. Unfortunately, we "won" that battle 59-17 vs 42-14.
Holy Cross has a great offense, but Fordham has the top offense in the country for either of the D1 subdivisions. It helps that Holy Cross has 11 5th year players and Fordham at least seven. Bucknell, as you know, has exactly 0 in that category.
The game was actually competitive into the fourth quarter, with Bucknell trailing Fordham at that point 31–17. Unfortunately Fordham won the last 10 minutes by a score of 28–0.
Bucknell also led early in the second quarter and were tied 3-3 five minutes before halftime. Fordham then went on a 21-0 run. As has happened a number of times during the season, the defense wears out when it is on the field constantly.
