The Associated Press preseason poll is out. Bucknell returns in its customary spot in the "others receiving votes" category.

The Bison are getting more tnan just a John Feinstein token vote, though, checking in with six points in the season's first poll. That ties Bucknell with Michigan for the unofficial No. 41 ranking.

While no other league teams picked up votes, several teams who league sides will face in non-conference action did. Here is a look at Patriot League games against teams in the preseason poll:

Nov. 10 Lehigh vs. Oregon (ORV)
Nov 13 Lafayette vs. Indiana (ORV) (preseason NIT)
Nov. 25 Navy vs. Villanova (ORV)
Nov. 25 American @ Xavier (ORV)
