Matt Borich Gives Bucknell a Proven Defensive Identity
Matt Borich is the Bucknell Bison’s defensive line coach, and his calling card is consistent, high-level defensive performance: under his guidance, Bucknell has finished in the national top 20 in total defense four times in eight years, including No. 10 in 2014 and No. 11 in 2017. That track record suggests he adds structure, toughness, and scheme discipline—useful if your team values fundamentals and reliable defense over flash. The available source material does not provide player-specific injury or personality notes, but Borich’s results point to a coach who can help build a hard-nosed, well-coached front.
