This is the second loss in a row for the Bison and nudges their season record down to 0-2. As for the Purple Eagles, their defeat dropped their record down to 0-1.

Bucknell is hoping to beat the odds on Saturday, as the experts think they're headed for a loss. They finished last season with a 13-16-1 record against the spread.

Bucknell strolled past Niagara in their previous matchup back in November of 2022 by a score of 68-50. The rematch might be a little tougher for Bucknell since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
