Game ain't over yet.

It is now. final score 34-21. it was 34-14 at one point. it was never closer than 13 once we went up 14-0.

looking over the play-by-play and this is high comedy. After we scored on our opening drive, Bucknell drove and fumbled on the 1. We drove 95 yards before Wang threw an interception. On third down Bucknell threw a pick 6.

12 penalties for 120 yards isn't a stat that will allow winning many games.  At least two penalties were made by freshman players. I'm sure the coaches will use this as a lesson to be learned.

All in the first half...

Looking at the optics I did not think they would win this one. Good to be wrong.  Banbury had a monster game.

Did your "optics" include Bucknell starting an inexperienced QB?

Were the penalties evenly distributed between offense and defense, or was the offensive line trying to hard to compensate for the perceived Bucknell superiority in aestheticism there?

Lesson apparently learned at halftime.  Announcers said Swanstrom kept team on sidelines 5-10 minutes before heading to locker room.
