Why would Bucknell have to lose two out of three games??? If BU loses to American – a team they barely beat at the buzzer last time – then LU would hold the tiebreaker.
Point taken. Actually Bucknell would have a loss to American and Lehigh has that loss to Colgate. It would come down to the records of American and Colgate. If they’re tied (and they very well could be), it goes to RPI, where Bucknell holds the advantage.
If Lehigh goes 3-0 in the late going – and games at Lafayette and home vs. Army will not be easy – even if Bucknell loses one game the chances of Lehigh winning the league outright have to be considered slim.
