One amazing item is that the Bison last played a Patriot League Tournament game on the road on March 4, 2009! Since then, BU has played its last 22 tourney games at Sojka by virtue of being the higher seed for every game it played. Only twice in the decade since then had the Bison not earned the #1 seed - 2010 when they were seeded 2nd and 2014 when they were seeded 4th.
That is a crazy stat.

So, do the tickets say general admission & not give a section & seat bc they were purchased prior to that information being available?
I was told the entire gym will be general admission, but Colgate is required to block off Bucknell sections.
Note there’s only one set of behind-the-hoop bleachers. It’s next to the Bison bench.

I think if we get to 500 we will be extremely lucky. There are 4 buses and as of yesterday about 375 tickets sold from box office in lewisburg per rumors

In response to NoMoney89
375 sold through Bucknell's box office is a decent number. I hope that other fans purchased directly from Colgate. Don't the players' families also get tickets through the athletic department??
If we can have around 500 Bucknell fans, at just under 30% of the total, it should get L-O-U-D and that spells llllooOOUUUUDDDah!
On a personal note, I would like to thank Nate Sestina, Kimbal Mackenzie, Nate Jones, and Matt O'Reilly for an exciting senior year. You should be proud of your achievements. I look forward to seeing all of you succeed in life.
GO BISON!!!

For me,March Madness begins tonight! Hopefully Kimbal, Nate, and Bucknell get the job done. I will be rooting for any Patriot League represent though. Anyone doing a bracket this year?

I compete in a bracket with about 500 other people. If interested, PM me, and I'll give you the details.

CBS studio guys lean toward Colgate. They are the favorite and Bucknell the underdog, something neither team is used to of late in the PL tourney. Hopefully the Bison play loose and have a good shooting night. Main theme of all recent losses is poor shooting. Nervous for this one but hopeful.

Not sure why we’re switching on Ivanauskas, I know we’ve been doing that lately, but we can’t be doing it on him.

Pains me to think America believes Colgate is popular in their home town.

An old problem that I thought we had fixed is rearing it’s head again. We can’t get outrebounded.
