Bucknell is also 0-1 after opening its season with a 35-14 road loss to Richmond. The Bison now return to Lewisburg for their home opener and the first home game of the Jeff Behrman era. Villanova has controlled the recent history between these programs, including a 55-3 victory in their most recent meeting in 2021, but Bucknell gets an opportunity to change that trend on its home field.
