Doubt we'll win by 45. If we are rolling, we'll look to kill the clock.

W&M favored? I’d certainly like to see them win. The more teams above us in the rankings lose, the happier I am.
Lets beat Bucknell by 50 and use some cockamamie Covid lie to explain our late game passing.

You can't ask hcpride to be nice when you're the one holding the grudge asking HC to win by 50.

First, we should be favored. Second, I predicted we’d go 11-0 this year, which we will, and I also predict we will beat BC next year. How will Shaughnessy, who said not long ago that HC no longer plays D1 football and should not play BC, spin that one? Guess he’ll simply denigrate BC to a level below D1 so it somehow doesn’t count.

We might want to actually get a win over BC before we speculate on how we should react to it. One game at a time. The same for one season. PS: I worry that Bucknell, having nothing to lose, the Bison might pull out all the stops, throwing caution to the wind. When a team does that, things can easily go awry...for a favorite

With a 12, 13, or even 14 game season on the horizon, the two-deep and three-deep get lots of playing time.

45 over Bucknell is a lot More like 24 -28 which will be terrific if that happens

The problem with a conservative, grind-out-the-clock approach by the Bison will be that after another 3 & out, Sluka, Coker, Oliver, Asante, Fuller and the rest of the HC offense get right back out there, and re-feast!

That’ll be the case whether they fling it around or run it…the theory is they burn much more clock running it. The nightmare scenario for Bucknell vis-a-vis blowout potential is if they get behind and start flinging it to try to catch up. Burning no clock. They’re smarter than that.

I really hope you guys are all correct and we don't see a combination HC let down and the ball bouncing crazy ways. This could be the classic trap game.

Don't overthink this one: HC has a much better team and is extremely well-coached. Holy Cross will dominate the game and win easily
