BUCKNELL (4-2, 1-1 Patriot) at HARVARD (3-1, 2-0 Ivy)
Harvard, in the last three weeks, has looked like a really good team, in large part to stellar play from Chapple.
And we still don’t know who will start tomorrow.
Winters hasn’t appeared since week one, so if he starts, who knows what we can expect. If he returns to mid-season form from 2010, the Crimson might be set.
If he plays like he did against Holy Cross week one, it could be a long day.
Either way, Bucknell is a tough football team, though its win-loss record might be deceptive.
One of the team’s losses came at Cornell, a 24-13 defeat. The Bisons led late in the third quarter but weren’t able to hold on.
It’s tough to make a pick when I don’t know who will be taking the snaps. But Bucknell’s loss against Cornell shows some vulnerability.
Then again, the commutative property doesn’t hold in the sporting world.
Pick: Harvard 35, Bucknell 27
RECORD LAST WEEK: 4-2 (To date: 8-4)
