Senior night.
Bison are a 5-point underdog, which is the second largest spread in a home PL game in the past 20 years. Might be the second largest in a league game in the past 35 years - but I don't have data to check that.

I think that you would be hard pressed to find more than a few people who would take the Bison and 5 points. If it was 15 points, I might be interested.
Sorry but that is the truth.
GO BISON! PROVE ME WRONG.

Great energy and hustle on defense...terrible % shooting 2’s with many missed layups. FT’s are horrendous. Hitting 3’s are saving us.

And to add to the crazy ups and downs they go out and beat the Raiders for senior night.

Bison played with much more energy and determination for much of the game, then they have for much of the year. Colgate seemed a little disinterested in the first half but other than making layups, the Bison played very well. Almost lost a game they led by 17 in the 2nd half, but give them credit, once they lost the lead they came back. Too bad Avi was on the court with 4 fouls and 7 minutes to go...but he gave them a good effort in his last home game.

That is why I don't bet on sports!
Way to go, Bison. You proved me wrong. Thank you!

Oh ye of little faith! Let's give some credit to this Bison team and their roller coaster season of close wins and losses. This is one to remember! Colgate looked less than ready during the first half thanks to great Bison defense inc. frontcourt traps, sturdy rebounding and constant pressure.
Colgate stayed out of the frontcourt to begin the 2nd half and quickly climbed back into the game with Burns leading the way for too many easy 2's and open 3's.
However this time, Bucknell didn't fade away. Credit due.

Agree with candy. While the season has been disappointing for all of us, give the Bison credit for really being in most of their games. Yes, we were blown away in some games, but look at the number of close 2, 3, and 4 point margin games, and for the lack of a few shots dropping, we would be a definite contender. This season has been a wake-up call to the team and fans alike, and with the performance last night, I still think the Bison can make some noise in the PL tournament. GO BISON - I'll be there for the tournament.
