Must win...


Thats all that really needs to be said.

[sycamorefan]

This is going to be interesting....

Sycamores play much more up tempo without Kelly...Lathan is the Key, he is the high flying slasher that can take over a game...he put the dagger in Drake and wrenched it around with two high flying dunks...Lathan is seventh in scoring the MVC but that includes a couple of games he completely disapeared early in the season...

A home win is what we need... and what well get on wednesday! I think this win goes a looooong way for the players, the coaching staff, and the restless fans. Heres to 10,000+ fans cheering loud for that game, and not 10,000 pessimist fans grumbling under their breath! Forget the past six games, LETS MOVE ON, starting with a HOME win on wednesday!!

Bradley gets off the schnide at home with a double-digit win. Book it.

I thought wining at Drake was an answer... that ship sailed away quickly. I believe we can win, in the past, not so long ago, I took a home win often for granted or atleasted expected a win, especially v the Trees, in todays world, I have no clue what team will show up and what team will show up half to half or even minute to minute.

No outcome will surprise me. But even in early Jan, this appears to be as much of a must win as any game we have played in a long time.

This must not only be a win, it must be a BIG statement win..... 15+ point victory!

[bigdaddystuck]

Will be there! Bringing my daughter to her first game, hope that changes our luck!!!

[Da Coach]

What? You haven't been taking her to the last 3 home games? That's why we have been losing!

I intend to change the clothes I have been wearing, and I suggest all fans do the same!

I agree with this...but I do this every time BU loses at home and it hasn't worked in the 2 games following the Western Carolina loss. Instead, I am taking a one day "sabbatical" from the team and missing my first conference home game in 4 years to stay home with the family.

I had to choose between the big Iowa/Orange Bowl game watch at Kouri's Pub tonight or the BU game tomorrow. With the poor start to the season for the BU and Iowa basketball teams, it will be great (for one night) to focus on the success of Iowa's football team culminating in a BCS Bowl game!

I had won four in a row in which I was in attendance before the Southern game. I brought some friends who were first timers at a Bradley game....unfortunate ending for them to see, but it was interesting to here comments from people who don't really follow Bradley. I usually switch between Bradley jersey T-shirts.

Maybe I should bring the JC shirt back out, I feel bad for the guy, what are we 1-4 since he joined the staff?? Unfortunate timing in joining the official staff I guess...JC will make a great coach someday, let's get him some more wins as a Bradley assistant!

[Dallas Brave]

While I have had a sense of pessimism going into the last several games, I, for some reason, feel optomistic about the Ind St. game. I think the Trees are a decent team, much better than Drake with whom BU struggled to beat, but it just feels like the Braves are about to get back on track.

come on

I was also there and the SIU fans seemed loud compared to us At least they did during the second half.
