In response to MangyOne
Does anyone know the Bison's OOC games for 2018? So far, all I have heard is we are hosting William & Mary on the Sept. 1 opener and traveling to Villanova on Sept. 22. A good start with two CAA games. Would love to know more - any info out there?
No info.. We know there are three missing games - but the interesting thing is that there seem to be four likely ones:
I
1. Sacred Heart - last year was the first in what is likely a two-game series.
2. Marist - series has been played consecutively for more than a decade, and last year was an odd year - implying BU owes a game at Marist in 2018
3 Cornell - The series has run for almost 20'consecutive years. This past year was an even year, implying the series could be broken off - but it has become such a traditional game that I doubt it. Also one of the renaining unknown games needs to be a home game and Cornell fits the bill - unlike Monmouth, Sacred Heart, or Marist.
4. Monmouth - Last year was Game 1 of the series, implying a return game is due. But perhaps it was some special arrangement, giving Monmouth a game on a date where another game fell through. Or part of some three-way deal involving Charleston Southern, who Bucknell visited but never got a home game. (Fwiw, Monmouth and Charleston Southern are fellow members of the Big South)
If I had to bet, I would bet on Cornell, Marist, and Sacred Heart. But that is purely a guess.
