They split their series together this season, both winning on the road.

I think ODU is the better team.

Who do we match up better against?

Anyway we respond to Coach Les' request and put 9000+ in Carver Arena on Tuesday.

I know it costs BU nearly $30,000 per game to host in the CIT. What, if any, prize is given to the champion? Is there money involved for the school, simply a trophy, or just pride for winning a postseason tourney. I don't really care I was just curious. Also, a CIT championship is not worthy of a banner to hang in Carver is it?

Actually, Bradley will make money with each home game. The actual split of the revenues has not been released by the CIT, but since the ticket sales, so far, have greatly exceeded the $28,000 level, Bradley will get a share of the revenues over $28,000 each game.

There will also be some kind of a trophy.
