And there was this close-but-no-cigar comeback by the Bison in 2007.
"But down 56-40 with 2:00 to play, the Bison scored 14 points in 53 seconds without allowing Saint Francis to cross midcourt, and miraculously they had two shots to tie in the final 20 seconds but could not get one to drop."

That loss had BisonStu's fingerprints all over it. From deep in the vault, the pregame discourse:
I wouldn't worry about this one, it should be a blowout.
Please don't provoke the sports gods like that! Yeesh!
Remarkably oblivious and undeterred, he would just weeks later declare:
"I can't see a loss to North Dakota (State) under any circumstances."
North Dakota State 68
Bucknell 60
Lo, far more BisonStu devastation lay ahead. His destructive hubris inexplicably intact after his nonconference disasters, he brazenly offered this appalling assurance about league play:
"Army, Navy, Lehigh are 6 gimmes."
Army, Navy, Lehigh: 5
Bucknell 1
