Bucknell vs Boston Univ. Prediction
Boston is the more talented team and should be favored at home, but this is a lot of points given what we just saw a couple of weeks ago. Bucknell beat Boston in double overtime, but it was also in control for the majority of that game. Bucknell had a double-digit lead in regulation with less than 10 minutes to go. That should give Bucknell some confidence, and this is a side that has 3 road wins. We recently saw Bucknell beat American on the road as big underdogs. Bucknell almost upset Lafayette on the road before that contest. Revenge spot, sure, but I’m grabbing the buckets with Bucknell.
