Which Bucknell Bison games are worth watching in 2026?
The season opens with two difficult conference road tests right away — a rematch at Richmond, where Bucknell escaped with a narrow 33-28 win last year for its first-ever victory in the series, followed by a home date against new Patriot League member Villanova. A three-game non-conference stretch against VMI, Penn, and Pitt fills out September.
Bucknell then plays seven straight Patriot League games to close the season, including road trips to Holy Cross, Lehigh, and William & Mary, before wrapping up the year at home against Colgate on November 21.
