With the season being so unpredictable, I have already thrown away my preseason projections and decided to head right over to my revised predictions.

I will rank the order of the teams and then I will rank how I think the Patriot League Tournament will go.

We can do this again at the end of the conference season and see how close we were and if the teams who we picked were in the right spot, right before the Conference Tournament.


1. Lafayette
2. Holy Cross
3. Colgate
4. Lehigh
5. American
6. Army
7. Bucknell
8. Navy

First Round
1. Lafayette vs. 8. Navy
4. Lehigh vs. 5. American
3. Colgate vs. 6. Army
2. Holy Cross vs. 7. Bucknell

Any thoughts or opinions? How do you see the season shaking out?

Bucknell's tougher than 7th. About the only thing I'd be willing to guarantee right now is Army 7th, Navy 8th.

1-6 is truly up for grabs and I can see a lower seed taking the conference tourney, but to stab at it for right now:

1. Colgate (10-4)
2. Lafayette (9-5)
3. American (8-6)
4. Holy Cross (8-6)
5. Bucknell (8-6)
6. Lehigh (8-6)
7. Army (4-10)
8. Navy (2-12)

The fact that you have Bucknell at #7 doesn't lend you much credibility..

1-3 is up for grabs, I think, with it probably breaking down like this:

1. Laf
2. AU
3. HC
4. CU
5. BU
6. Lehigh
7. Army (2-12, they get to play Navy twice)
8. Navy (0-14)

10 or 11 wins is probably going to wrap this thing up. In the tournament, you'll probably see one of the top three get knocked off in the first round, and I can see a team like Bucknell or CU get hot and win it all. If Jernavis Draughn plays more than 30 minutes in the three tourney games, AU wins it all.

All I know is that it's called a prediction. Should the fact that you have less than 10 posts effect my decision to read what you write.

It's not like Bucknell has been any type of world beaters this year. The whole Patriot League is down and looking at a 15-16 seed this year most likely.
