I think those that said they were sold out were trying to get more than 2 tickets. There are no areas where you can get more than 2 seats side by side.

That is also false, according to the St Bonaventure online ticket sale site.
I just put in a mock request for five tickets and it served up five all together.

I'm in upstate NY (SUNY Geneseo) so Im going to go to the game. Tickets with a few added fees are pretty much twice a Bucknell ticket but what the heck. Who's going to take all the open minutes? Can Sestina play 30 plus minutes? Can Bruce play 30? I think Sotos will net a double digit score and double digit assist you heard it here. Heres the point breakdown: MacKenzie 16, Sestina 13, Sotos 11, Moore 6, Toomer 5, Robinson 7, Jones 8, Newman 8 Spears 8. O'Reilley 9 (three 3's) for a total of 91. Bucknell wins 91-84.

Thanks to the person who mentioned the free 7 day trial on ESPN+. I plan to watch the game while my wife takes her turn driving down to visit UNC and Duke with our high school Junior.

We're playing ok the ball isn't bouncing our way and they have an advantage in the paint even when sestina is in. Paul Newman is overwhelmed. Sotos has icy hands but is hustling. Kimball is doing well. The freshman are doing ok funk threw two bricks and Ellis is holding his own. If we can shore up a few details we will be ok. Oreilley the three point specialist needs to drain his shots. A close one even with our mediocre play. Olean is a nice place vibrant not depressed like I thought. Love the roundabouts on the main st and st boneventure is nice with gracious folks.

Initial impression after 20 minutes of basketball .....Walter Ellis is going to be a star.

I’m only listening, but after 32 minutes, seems the bench is nonexistent, save for a late Newman rally. Too many turnovers, some questionable defense and some poor shooting. FT’s? Guess Nana wasn’t the only one who was bad at the line.

Good hard fought win. Tougher than it needed to be.

I was completely unimpressed for the first 30 minutes, and then things totally turned.

That was one helluva gutsy win! Three stars graduated. First game on the road against an A-10 team. Down most of the game. Did everything right at the end. Well executed and well coached. I couldn't be more proud. Griff must see something of himself in Kimball. I'll make a prediction here: Kimball will be first team All PL. Maybe Sestina too!

Well a nice win on the road. Definitely have things to improve but still, a good win. Davis played his starters more than any early season game I can recall. We will need more from the bench. Down the stretch the more experienced Bison made a few blunders, but came up with some big shots. Kimbal a great offensive game, Sestina a huge all-around game...he needs some help on the glass. Good to be 1-0.

Ok first and foremost the refs were absolutely atrocious. So bad, they shouldn’t see another D1 game. You call 3 consecutive flagrant fouls...and I don’t think any of them were. The worst was the double foul...how can you call a block and a charge!???!
Ok overall it was a sloppy win, but a solid win none the less. They showed heart coming back and you have to respect that. The free throw shooting was horrible outside of Sotos and Kimbal and what is Sotos doing with two consecutive fouls. Obviously Nate dominated on the boards but I’d like him to be more aggressive down low. Moore and Newman had flashes but were both inconsistent. My biggest complaint is there seems to be very little flow and penetration with the offense. Maybe they need to feel each other out, but it was stagnant.
Oh and Kimbal was awesome...that is all.

Btw, this game was a classic example of how replay, in all sports, is more trouble than it is worth. 3 back to back to back flagrant fouls, and then a double foul? Are you kidding me?

With all the worries we had going in, Nate was the only big on either side not in foul trouble.

I was impressed with Newman's performance tonight. Coach ND said that he is really improved and he showed it tonight.
