The biggest debate in Bucknell right now is, "What do you do when you have to inbound the basketball when you are up 2 points with 2.8 seconds remaining?" Naming no names *ahem* DB *ahem* one of the guys in our men's basketball team chucked the ball right to the other end of the court with no one in sight. No one managed to even come close to touching the ball and hence the clock did not start. Northen Iowa inbounded from under Bucknell's basket and scored a 2 to tie the game. Bucknell eventually lost in double overtime.
How pissed are you as a Bucknellian? Some are pissed while others are disappointed. There are 1001 things anyone could have done. But due to time and space constraints, I shall provide you with my personal top 5.
5. Call a timeout (Bucknell had 2 remaining timeouts)
4. Chuck the ball up wherever and cause a free for all on the ball. (It's only 2.8 seconds)
3. Bring all your men up court and chuck it right there and cause a free for all. (Even if they get it, they need to bring the ball up court before they shoot)
2. Chuck it straight at an opposing team member and let it go out of bounds again
1. CHUCK THE BALL REALLY REALLY REALLY HARD at an opposing team member. (There's no way he can catch that)
All in all, a disappointing loss for Bucknell. Bye bye top 25.
