I dug a little deeper and found an amazing nugget. During the history of the Patriot League's "playoff era", 1997-present, there have been TWO, 2, Dos playoff losses that were by less than 10 points. That's an amazing stat! That's not to say all these games were blowouts but in the end they weren't 1 possession type battles. The 4 games that I thought were <10 points ('09 Holy Cross-Villanova, '07 Fordham-UMass, '05 Lafayette-App State, '04 Lafayette-Delaware) were actually 10-14 point margins.

Only Lehigh has single digit playoff losses on their resume. Ironically, both came against the eventual National Champion.
2004 JMU 14 Lehigh 13
1998 UMass 27 Lehigh 21

There's an obvious reason for this.
