Vanderbilt

[Da Coach]

Vanderbilt did not lose any home games last year, and already they have lost 2 home games this year. They lost to Illinois on November 20, then again to UIC last night.

Here is an article about the Vanderbilt season so far, and one line from it gave me a laugh--

Note the 7th paragraph--
While there are ample reasons to hang their heads, it's not as if the Commodores were playing a pickup team. The Flames, out of the Horizon League, have only dropped two close games this season, to Big East foe DePaul and perennial NCAA tournament darling Bradley.

So here on BradleyFans.com, we will now be referring to Bradley as the perennial NCAA tournament darling!

Bradley is well respected just about everywhere except Peoria

Thats almost as funny as this quote in the TribStar out of Terre Haute.

"Illinois State is off to a 7-0 start and has faced some good teams at the start."

Hey, it was quoted in the media...Sounds good to me! I like the sound of it!

[Bravesfan]

Yup! Sounds good to me too. This year will be the first of ten straight NCAA appearances for us. Book it! That website is just being prepared!

Maybe they have us confused w/ Purdue...

I mean we are both in Indiana right

[squirrel]

There is some benefit for constantly being confused with Butler.

I guess the 10,000 fans at the games don't respect the Braves. I would imagine you meant the PJS.

And Baylor...and Boston U...and Belmont...

I love it. Keep up the good work.

Bradley will be celebrating the 20th anniversary of its most recent MVC tournament championship this season. There have been two at large bids in the meantime with two incredible victories included in 2006. I skated by in my English classes (I got an MFE degree), so I'm not sure if perennial NCAA tournament darlings is appropriate or not.
