ANALYSIS:
If you see Bucknell on the schedule, you will likely get one of the average to below-average teams in college hoops. They have a record of 19-15 and are ranked 203rd overall (out of 351) in the latest Haslametrics ratings. Of the 10 schools in the Patriot League (average ranking 233.2), they're currently ranked as our #4 team in the conference.

Bucknell does not provide much of a challenge on defense. They are ranked at #274 in efficiency on that end of the court and give up about 106 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Bucknell is extremely underskilled to force steals that turn into quick and easy points. They're ranked #348 in potential points off of breakaway steals with a rating of only 7.32 vs. AO.

Though they rate better on offense than they do on defense, Bucknell still isn't one of the more capable offensive teams in college hoops. Scoring roughly 100 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #176 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Bucknell won't provide opponents much of a scare with their shooting percentage from the inside. The team is ranked 323rd in near-proximity field goal percentage, making only 51.9% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO. If Bucknell does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to sink threes. The squad converts 37.4% of their three-point attempts vs. AO, which ranks 46th in the nation.
