Mea culpa time. I had the team winning four OOC games plus the “exhibition” against Lebanon Valley. Today the team exceeded my prediction, with a few games, at least one of which looks winnable, to go. Glad I was wrong on the low side.

75, I was just thinking the same thing. I think that my prediction was 3 OOC wins including the D3 game. The Bison continue to surprise me. Hopefully, they will surprise lots of PL teams.
GO BISON!
New season, new team, new dream . . . |

They've exceeded my expectations as well. But, remember they've played one of the easiest schedules in the PL. They may be able to compete with the mid-pack teams, but could have a tough time with Boston, Colgate, and Navy.

I believe I picked five wins including LVC…the ooc schedule isn’t strong but I agree, I have been somewhat surprised with their wins.

Aside from the sharp Bison shooting and passing, the most entertaining part of today's broadcast was the commentators repeatedly talking about how Bucknell was keeping NJIT's "crowd" from becoming a factor.

I never cheer against the Bison. I was way off on the OOC prediction because I underestimated Timmerman’s emergence as a leader and how awful their opponents have been. However we all know Davis needs to go and I’m hoping this success against the bottom of D1 opponents doesn’t result in a contract extension. This program is much closer to the bottom of the PL than the top. And yet I’d still love to see them win every game they play. ????????

My pick of eight wins is right on track. I'm not as optimistic in Patriot league play. Just calling it like it is.

I do hereby belatedly acknowledge that my attempted refutation of HuskyColonial's December 7 assessment of the team's prospects proved hollow.
Final result via tournament seeding:
1. Colgate
2. Navy
3. Lehigh
4. Army
5. Boston University
6. Lafayette
7. American
8. Loyola
9. Holy Cross
10.Bucknell
