No confirmation yet, but there are reports Bucknell will face George Mason in a game to be played at the MCI Center in Washington, D.C.

The report comes via Eric Thomas, who was told of the game by George Mason player Gabe Norwood. Thomas spoke to Norwood at Penn State football's Lift for Life this afternoon. Norwood, a State College native, was on hand to lend support to his younger brother Jordan, a sophomore wide receiver for the Nittany Lions. Their father Brian is an assistant on Joe Paterno's staff.

This would be the ninth meeting all-time between the two schools. Mason won the last meeting, 69-58 in the 1999-2000 season in Fairfax. The Patriots lead the series 6-2. Under Pat Flannery Bucknell is 1-1 against Mason. The other six games were during the Charlie Woollum era.
