Week 5 Holy Cross vs Lehigh Game Preview

The Crusaders are coming off one of their best seasons as a program since the 1980s, as their only loss in Patriot League play came by three points against the Lafayette Leopards. While Holy Cross was blown out in the first round of the playoffs 44-27 by the No. 14 Monmouth Hawks, it was still a promising season for a team that has only made the postseason three teams since moving to FCS in 1981.

With much of the roster returning as players were granted an extra year of eligibility from the cancelled 2020 fall season, Holy Cross is favored to repeat as Patriot League champions. The Crusaders have 15 seniors who are expected to be in the regular lineup, and six All-Patriot League players are back from the 2019 team.

A vastly improved defense kept the Mountain Hawks in most games during the 2019 season. The 2019 Mountain Hawks allowed 14 fewer points and 100 fewer yards of total offense than they did in 2018. Lehigh led the Patriot League in rushing defense in 2019, allowing 130.5 yards per game.
