Bucknell is completely dominating....

20-0 Bison and looking for more....

What the hell is going on?

Bucknell 27-0 7:27 2Q

Talk about a no show....

BB pick, Bucknell ball at midfield....

[gumby013]

Is this real life?

[Franks Tanks]

Lehigh sucks. The Leopards beat the Bison by a bunch and gave up 80 yards of offense the entire day!

[LehighU11]

Yes they do. Worth noting that the Pards faced Bucknell's 3rd string QB. Wesley is healthy again and looks pretty good for the Bison. Still an embarrassing no show game.

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

Why type of call was that on 3rd down?

[Neighbor2]

Must'a been a HUGE party on the Lehigh campus last night.

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

LU FG before half....really had a chance there....

Bucknell is unleashing 15 yrs of fury on us!!! Well done Bison.

Who gets the ball to start the second half?

[LehighU11]

I think the team has just become complacent and believes they can roll over any and all PL opponents after the past three seasons' success. If they're going to lose 1 game all season, this is one they can afford to lose. Although that's assuming they can beat HC, Gate, and Lafayette. Won't happen if they play like they have all season, besides UNH and Georgetown.

[LehighU11]

Who gets the ball to start the second half?

Bucknell. Leaks coughed up the ball on the 1st half kickoff.

[Pard4Life]

Can't.... contain... can't contain... can't... BAHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAA!!!! xlolx

Ok, now that I got that out of my system, Lehigh is still in this game. However, bucknell has some form of a defense, but, Bucknell has not faced anything quite like it. Don't leave the stadium just yet.

turnovers seem to be a big problem today...

[Pard4Life]

Bucknell halftime report is about jewlery and computer CAD technology... KILL ME! xanim_chaix

[SingForever]

turnovers seem to be a big problem today...Brainless Parris almost caused ANOTHER turnover when a punt return was called off and then he went over to the ball and almost was touched by it and he almost picked it up. He either should be replaced on punt returns or be given a lecture on when to field a punt and when to leave it alone. His stupidity changed the momentum in the Fordham game, if you remember.

Hey, it's unless it's basketball, I am never motivated to go to Bucknell.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Three deep passes have absolutely killed the Mountain Hawks, though one was tipped at the line and still found the speedy freshman.

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

How can Lehigh look this bad? I mean seriously?

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

This is horrendous....

[dbackjon]

So I guess this ends any talk of Lehigh in the top 25?

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

Now BB is hurt....

[Lehigh Football Nation]

TD Sherman Moving the pile. Lehigh 10, Bucknell 34.

Lot of time left and a tiny bit of Brown momentum. But it's an awfully big hole.

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

The defense is getting completely run over....

[RichH2]

Just got in.WTF!!! Reading thread looks like e did another no show.BU has a D ,first one we faced all yr. D still sucks,if O dont show we lose. No way we beat Pards like this. Their D even better.Cant believe players just mailed it in today. Thank God for a bye next week.

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

Bucknell 41-0


I wasn't there for the HC debacle of '07 but this seems worse! This is Buck-freakin-nell......

[RichH2]

Lord our D may be young as Andy keeps saying but they're terrible also.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

I'm trying to figure out a worse outcome than this, and I can't visualize it.

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

I'm trying to figure out a worse outcome than this, and I can't visualize it.

The team loses the last 4 games and finishes 6-5? That's what I'm getting out of this....

The Bison are a bad team. This is the worst LU performance I've seen in 20+ years....

[RichH2]

Well we'll win next wk for sure,not real optimistic for the rest tho. D just not getting any better. Gate and HC weak D so we might pull a win. Pards have better D than BU so unless O comes also no way we win.

[Lehigh'98]

We needed D to keep us in a game first time this year. That didn't happen. Not that there is a good league game to lose, but if it had to be one, I woulda chose this. I think we were a bit overrated coming into this one. We haven't played good D all year

[RichH2]

41-10 beyond embarrassing game. Perhaps these kids needed their egos deflated. Well they got it in spades.

[RichH2]

Bb done with a shoulder injury.McHale throws another INT

[Southsider]

Just booted up in Fla......I must say, I am not surprised. This team has been awfully lucky to date. And, obviously wayyyyyyyy overated. At some point you think you can just show up and win. Not so. And, at some point Bucknell gets tired of hearing about 15 in a row. I hope they don't win the league, because the almost assured first round loss will never be forgotten bu the LU haters here!

[SingForever]

The game is bad enough, but that Bucknell announcer is obnoxiously irritating.

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

The duel DC deal has to end! The message is not getting across as needed!

[van]

Now BB is hurt....

not much of a loss today, he was not very sharp

[Pard4Life]

WOW! This is the same exact thing that happened to Lafayette in 2011 during the snowstorm game... no explanation. Ironically, the same weekend too.

have you been to Lexington lately?

[Lehigh'98]

Let's give some credit to Bucknell, they obviously got tired of being pushed around by Lehigh and wanted it way more today.

[RichH2]

Final 48-10. Wonder how Andy is going to explain this one?

I've refreshed the scores page three times............can't believe my eyes, but congrats to the Bison........they'll probably mash the Keydets on 23 Nov.

[Bogus Megapardus]

Congratulations to the Bucknell Bison! Awesome win.

[MTfan4life]

The one positive for Lehigh losing to this Bucknell team is that it has no effect on their conference title hopes. By tanking against a team already with 2 conference losses, Lehigh still controls their own destiny. This may put a stunt to their egos and their fans' confidence, but in retrospect, it doesn't affect their playoff aspirations. It may even be a good wake up call.

[RichH2]

BU outplayed us from start to finish,deserve credit for great win . Any bright spots for LU.Shafnisky got to play by far our best runner but he threw an INt also. Only takeaway from this game for fans and players is that they are not as good as they thought they were. They are not a squad that can win just by showing up. If nothing else I hope we learned that today. Thought we had last yr after Gate loss. I was wrong

True enuf. Our fate is still in our hands but we face 3 better teams to end the season. If we man up like UNH game we'll do OK, anything less and we lose.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Anyone else concerned that BB may be done for the year? If he is, that changes everything.

[Twentysix]

Can I move Lehigh from #1 down to #2 now? xlolx

[RichH2]

No info yet on extent of injury,just that he was out for game. 2 weeks til next we can hope he'll be OK. He had little help today.OL and DL both decided to stay home. If they dont learn from today,BB's health will not matter.

[Lehigh'98]

BB, broken collarbone, done for year looks like.

[RichH2]

ANDY I have nothing positive to say about today's game. Wont know on BB til after tests

[ColgateTD]

No positives here for 'Gate. Next week we face a revitalized Bison team, LU gets to rest up and lick their wounds and will most likely win out this season. No way, no how we win another championship with today's scenario. The cards couldn't have been split worse for our side. A dusiltory win over G'town today doesn't mean much.

Gate, we just lost by 38 to Bucknell and may have lost QB for year. You guys have us at home with a healthy McCarney. I would say things are looking up for u. You may have to worry about Lafayette more than us.

[RichH2]

Bad news on BB . and for us. Tough,he waited til senior yr and was starring a shame .McHale best manup quickly.

I do wonder how we could beat Tigers and UNh yet get destroyed by Bucknell?

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

Anyone know the last time Bucknell beat a ranked team? Colgate in '99 is the only one I can think of....

[Lehigh'98]

The only loss I can think of that was close to this bad in last 20 yrs was 97 Colgate when they put up 61 on us in Hamilton.

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

Just read that LU has not forced a TO since Princeton! LU always has a good TO ratio!

[hawkineer]

Can we all agree that the Wilcher-Roberts co-defensive co-ordinators experiment has been an unmitigated disaster? Two week until HC. Joe Bottiglieri needs to be promoted to defensive coordinator tomorrow. He has two weeks to implement a new defensive scheme. I am sick and tired of watching a defense that just stands there and waits to be hit rather than hit. Time to become more attacking. We'll see of Coen has a set or not.

Also, Wilcher should either be let go or spend all of his time coaching the DBs. His defensive backs play incredibly soft and don't know how to play the ball in the air. This is two years in a row where a senior laden defensive backfield looks more like sophomores and freshmen than juniors and seniors. The play be Tyler Ward, a senior, was as bad a play as you'll see a defensive back ever make.

This defense affords the offense no margin for error.

Today was the worst game since the Holy Cross beat down in the mid 2000s. At least that was a good HC team.

Enjoy your 45 scholarship advantage and associated arrogance for a few more years. Once the rest of the league has their full allotment, Fordham, as history shows when all things are EQUAL, will resume its rightful position in the bottom half of the league.xrolleyesx

It certainly doesn't help Fordhams argument for a #1 seed.

[hawkineer]

I think that this is a clear indication that their rope a dope defense is not aggressive enough to cause turnovers. The defense is just too darn passive to force the other guys into mistakes. Bucknell has been a turnover machine all year yet Lehigh is a -5 today. Kind of shows who the more aggressive, hungrier team was.

[Bogus Megapardus]

Arrogant? Look who's talking! This post reeks of it.

The only way that Lehigh is marginally a good win is their victory over Princeton and competitive UNH. Lehigh was a good win at the time, but things have changed. BB is out. And losing to Bucknell? Seriously?!

Something must be done! The two DC was always "unusual" but now it's become a problem imo. I think it's Andy being too nice of a guy again (like not firing that old OC). Today was just miserable!

[Pard4Life]

It certainly doesn't help Fordhams argument for a #1 seed.

Nah, Fordham would not be number one regardless... 12-0, at best a three. Towson, EWU, E. Illinois, (McNeese?) and Bison have inside track. Others have to trip up. Think Colgate 2003.

Even undefeated, NDSU will only have 10 DI wins. EWU has 2 losses, McNeese was slaughtered by UNI. EIU has a loss, but its a pretty good one, Towson also has a loss.

[Go...gate]

First, congratulations to Joe Susan and Bucknell. Not just a win but a decisive one.

Second, those of us who are a little older remember occasions over the years when Bucknell rose up and knocked off a stronger Lehigh eleven.

Third, to me, this is the beauty of the Patriot League - competitive balance. On "Any Given Saturday", ANYONE in the conference can knock off anyone else.

Fourth, surprised that Lehigh was so flat, but they may have needed this. They will be very tough down the stretch. Notwithstanding, I am sure that the club from down the road in Easton sees a legitimate chance for victory in a few weeks.

turn overs were not really a result of agressive D by Buffs, we just gave em away, team focus was poor at best, team just mailed it in today, fumbles, poor throws, dropped passes, ugh, as a fan and alum it was really hard to watch and be proud

Oh and credit to Buffs, they really did play and inspired game and earned the win

[ngineer]

Just got back from Lewisburg. Would have had a better time had I stopped at the 'big house' up the road...probably would have seen more scoring than our O. As for the debacle:
There was something missing from this team before the game and even when they came out. No energy. Got the feeling they were just going to another day at the office.
The first play of the game said it all as Leaks fumbled the KO around the 20.
Even after the FG, Lehigh had a shot to punch right back, but Kurfis, of all people is 5 yards behind the secondary and drops a bomb from Bialkowski. The long TD in that situation sets momentum. Instead a blown opportunity.
Bucknell's offense is not the same offense Lafayette saw several weeks ago. Wesley is very good and makes opportunities for others. Williams a rising star at RB.
Bialkowski was off all day--passes a tad high and INTs off of deflections. Still WRs should have caught some of them.
Offensive play calling was downright weird at times. BB is not a runner and should never be used on 3rd and short; they run Farrell, who is really a fullback, WIDE on short yardage. Are you kidding me?
Defense was downright embarrassing. Ward lets a long pass go through his hands for a huge gain, tackling was bad. I agree with some of the prior posts, Coen has to make a change at DC. The scheme, attitude, approach has to change. No aggression, receivers are wide open.
ST were horrible. Leaks' fumble, even reliable Divers shanked a punt. People standing around looking at a short kickoff almost recovered. Lehigh after scoring to make it 34-10, but with plenty of time to get back recovers an onside kick!!....But, Lehigh was offside.
The entire performance was a gigantic cluster fck. Coaches responsible for not having the team's attention and ready to play. They weren't ready to play Moravian College today.
The good news....IF they win out, they win the league. This will take a major look in the mirror over the next two weeks. The thing about college football is that you never fully know what the mental attitude will be from week to week. Bucknell beat a decent Dartmouth team last week, and that should have gotten their attention. If this beat down didn't then the season will be lost.
BB's injury did not look good. The placement of the ice said collarbone to me. Considering the injury, the bye week comes at the best time. If they know BB is done, it give McHale two weeks to prep at #1 and Shafnisky time to realize he's close to being "the man" if McHale doesn't get the job done. Now we get to see what they are made of with their backs against the wall.

[Pard4Life]

If Lehigh wins out, you do not necessarily win the league. Bucknell could win the rest of their games, and Pards could only lose to Lehigh.

[ngineer]

With the right combination of circumstances, there could be a 3-way tie between LU, CU, and Bucknell. In that case, the tiebreaker goes to BU. I don't think I will hold my breath waiting for that however.

[bison137]

I Bucknell has been a turnover machine all year yet Lehigh is a -5 today. Kind of shows who the more aggressive, hungrier team was.


That was definitely true when Wesley was out and they were forced to play a freshman QB who clearly was not ready to play. However in three of Wesley's four games there were no turnovers at all. Only in the Cornell game, played in a monsoon, were there any turnover issues - and most of those were unforced fumbles.

Over the last three years, Wesley has started 26 games and thrown 14 interceptions.

[Pard4Life]

Massey ratings gave Lehigh 94% chance of winning today. LC was given 41% chance to win today.

As of this week, Pards had 19% chance to beat Lehigh. Things have changed now!

[Pard4Life]

Before Lehigh went on their streak that ended today, this series was 29-29-3. http://www.cfbdatawarehouse.com/data/div_iaa/patriot/lehigh/opponents_records.php?teamid=433

Wasn't this the longest active losing streak to a team in a series played in consecutive years?

[RichH2]

Blame irrelevant right now. Andy has to fix this. Coaches job to have team ready. Neither they nor team were prepared for this game.With this squad all falls on O. D has benn and continues to be a cluster fck. The DCs are good position guys but the combo at DC does not work.Youth on D OK forthe 1st 2-3 wks,nomore. They are getting worse not better. Andy has 2 wks to put this team back together. Reading tweets of D players they fel humiliated as they should. Hope they and all others realize that the first 5 wks magic not there anymore.Said earlier,I've seen many Ls in my time and some very bad teams but this game is the most embarrassing display of lack of focus,effort and preparation. BU played a near perfect game,we were not even ready to try.

[JimLU]

Bucknell has a rich football history going back to the Penn State-Bucknell rivalry of the thirties and forties. They're only about 35-40 miles apart. The Bison actually played in the first Orange bowl. But football has been bad or really bad since the the sixties, with the exception of coach Gadd's couple of good years in the late 90's. I suspect it has to do with allotment of resources in the athletic department (compared to basketball) and bad luck in coach selection over the years.

It definitely has a lot to due with resource allocation. BU has funded about 20 less equivalencies than the more successful PL teams. I don't think that the coach selection has been too bad - but other than Gadd, who consistently won (48-28 in his 7 seasons) with less financial support - no-one else has been good enough to over come the spending gap. Gadd's tragic death was a huge setback to the program. With good health, he might still be coaching the program.

Speaking of Penn State, there was actually a time when PSU stopped playing Bucknell because they were losing too much. Unfortunately that happened in 1930. PSU is 55 miles west of Bucknell btw.

Ha let's pump the breaks. Nice to know that the scenario does exist though.

Just because Bucknell fans aren't posting on an internet message board doesn't mean we aren't excited that the streak has finally ended. The team played a nearly flawless game and Lehigh didn't show up. It's one game though. I'm not gonna get my hopes up and start talking about what this season could be. Regarding the attendance, yes it's a shame that more people weren't there to witness the game. Can't have great attendance at all sporting events. Lehigh knows all about that. Couldn't fill Stabler with possibly the greatest PL player EVER and that was when they fielded a competive team. Bucknell football hasn't been competitive enough to warrant people showing up.

Now, on to Colgate
