    I don't know but I wouldn't think we helped ourselves out any today as far as the Big Dance? The same SR leadership that got us this far in the last few games did not show up today....a couple of very dumb fouls by Cellus in this game to go with some very lazy D' played by him!

    Why did we stop going to PO'B in the 2nd half? It just doesn't make any sense.......NOW WE SIT AND WAIT FOR WHAT WILL BE THE LONGEST WEEK EVER!

          Yeah, the better team won today. SIU owned the boards in all 3 of their games this weekend. I think we got in trouble when Boogie didn't have some shots drop after he came in today. He made early baskets against Creighton and Wichita which not only sparked his game, but the rest of the team too. POB got little to no help from everyone else in the first half. Another key was the first half turnovers. Of the 8 Bradley had, I think 6 were un-forced. Like Dick and Clark said, SIU was fortunate not to be down by 6-8 points by halftime. The start of the second half was reminiscent of our start at Carbondale. It was like watching surgery performed with a butter knife ! Now, we wait.

              IMO........losing to SIU really hurts the Braves chances for the Big Dance.........it was almost like fighting for the last dance card.........hope I'm wrong?

                In the championship game of the 2006 State Farm Missouri Valley Conference Men?s Basketball Tournament, No. 2 Southern Illinois (22-10) defeated No. 5 Bradley (20-10) 59-46 behind another strong performance from Randal Falker. The sophomore finished with 17 points and 16 rebounds on his way to being named the tournament?s Most Outstanding Player. This is Southern Illinois fourth tournament title overall, its first since 1995.

                        BM, Bradley is IN.

                        Belly laugh at anyone in the face that says differently.

                        Next Sunday, we will be watching to see where we are playing and who we will be playing in the NCAA.

                        No suspense.

                        Book it.

                            Does anyone know why DR was on the bench at the end of the game? Was he hurt or something?

                              my guess would be the unusually high amount of turnovers for him.

                                According to Jim Les, Daniel had a case of the stomach flu. He has been sick all weekend, but he couldn't go any more today and had to be taken out.
