Bucknell is going to be a very good test for the Gophers and their young backcourt.

The Bison's best player and posibly the Patriot League's best player is Mike Muscala from Roseville. Should be interesting to see how he performs on the Barn floor, expect him to have a big game.
Bucknell is a good outside shooting team, so our perimeter defense better show up tonight. Other than that I hope to see an offense that is learning to play well together and a defense that has some intensity.
