    We really didn't deserve to win.....

    I KNEW you'd look. Relax.

    I have heard this comment several times...in fact I THOUGHT the same thing....briefly.

    After careful consideration...we certainly DID "deserve to win". I understand the premise in this thought/statement but look at what we did.

    We took their best shot time and time again, much like a heavyweight bout, and kept getting up to not only answer the bell but get a few shots in of our own.

    How many clutch shots (punches) did we throw when we HAD to have em....Sammy several times.....Dodie multiple times.......TW......Singh......leads that were 3-4-5- kept at that differential when not responding coulda pushed it to 7-8-9 late.

    Then...after handling their best...we snuck in a few jabs....a flurry of quick hits and then.............................THE BIG ROUND HOUSE FOR THE KNOCKOUT.

    TKO baby.....

    I say we deserved this win.....without a doubt.

      Not only did we not deserve that win, but we dont deserve to be playing in any game right now. This is not a real tournament and all BU fans should be ashamed to be cheering a silly win in a made up tournament!
      Some see a hopeless end, while others see an endless hope.

        Yeah, I'm not sure where all that nonsense came from. Other than the terrible 12-23 start, we played just fine!

          I really didn't take the scattered comments as nonsense...I think it was more a compliment to how well the other team looked and played....as I stated I felt the same way...briefly.

          We, as you stated, played well also save the slow start. And like I said...answered all their big hits with big hits of our own AND the games biggest and most importaint hit....

            I'm just saying they outscored us by 11 to start the game, but we obviously outscored them by 12 the rest of the way. Of course Oakland played a great game and I was very impressed with their team, but to say we didn't deserve to win that game is, in my opinion, an insult to our team!

              Sometimes you lose when you're supposed to win, and win when you're supposed to lose. That's basketball.

                BU stayed with Oakland, and never let the lead get too large. BU shot over 53% for the game. I felt a little sorry for Oakland, but I would not agree that BU didn't deserve to win.

                  Exactly! I can maybe see that neither team "deserved" to lose that game, because it really was a great game, but I won't be the one to say Bradley didn't deserve to win.

                    Didn't Braves4Life say we'd win by 20? And the rest of us said not a chance? I'd just like to hear a "my bad." Not trying to call you out, but I think we need to be realistic.
                    Here's the deal, Wyoming for football, Bradley for basketball.

                        I'm on record saying.....

                        For the season, they are averaging 80.3 points in their 23 wins and 64.8 points in their 12 losses.

                        Prediction....

                        70 - Oakland
                        71 - Bradley
                        No crow for me!

                          Thanks! The cheerleaders alone are priceless. Just the difference between the two pictures! I really like the one on the far right. That pretty much sums it up.

                            Precisely.. Note that I said "the rest of us said no way."
