Holy Cross Crusaders
Holy Cross came into Patriot League Tournament play on the heels of two ugly losses, one at Colgate and the other vs. American, both by at least 20 points. That didn’t stop it from winning at Lafayette on Tuesday night in a 10/7 upset, 79–74.
The Crusaders’ top scorer, Jacob Grandison, scored 22 point and grabbed 16 rebounds as a 6’6″ guard. Jehyve Floyd nearly doubled his season average with 24 points to lead all scorers.

Floyd hit a game-winner against Bucknell the last time the two teams played, on February 16 in Worcester. The Bison won by 15 at their place a month earlier in the first matchup between the two teams.
Bucknell Bison
I have to think it’s scarier for a team awaiting the winner of a first round game when the lower seeded team wins. Not only does it prove to have an upset mentality, but it also proves it can win on the road, which is just what Holy Cross did on Tuesday night.

But Bucknell is a tough team to upset in the Patriot League because it plays defense first. The offense did rank second in the league with 77 points per game, as opposed to Bucknell’s defense, which came fourth with 73 points per game, on average.
That said, Nathan Davis preaches defense and his team plays consistently great defense that should only get better on a stage like this one. It is what has brought Bucknell to the NCAA Tournament in each of the last two years after missing it in Davis’ first season.
CBB Betting Trends:

Free Holy Cross Crusaders vs. Bucknell Bison NCAAB Prediction: Bucknell wins a close game.
I’m not going to lay any points with Bucknell because I believe Holy Cross is a tough matchup that has upset on its mind. The Bison should still win this game at home, though, just not by too much.
