I can't help but think we should be 10-4 or 11-3.......ugh

Well, based on those stands, UNI is definitely the class of the valley right now with WSU and ISU (red) right behind. I think Drake and Evansville are safely in the play-in game, which leaves two more teams still there from the MSU, CU, SIU, ISU (Blue) and us. Losing that game to SIU is going to be a killer come tie breaker time.

I can't help but think the loss at home to SIU will come back to haunt BU regarding the play-in game.

ISU blue can say the same thing about losing at Bradley. Things have a way of working themselves out especially after 4 games. We control our own destiny regardless of the SIU outcome.

Would love to see UNI dismantle isu on national television and be a top 25 team when we go there next week.

So there is a pretty good likelyhood that there will be a 3-way tie for 1st place AND Bradley drops all the way into a 7th place tie with Creighton if everyone holds serve...

Hope we trump that because we could push to a 3-way 4th place tie w/ SIU and Indiana State...

Still think about where we'd be if we had closed out SIU


Need to get it together for Saturday...


The white board should say 2 things....

PLAY 40

[it's boogie time]

So 5 games into the conference season, Bradley is 3 games out of first place.

I dont think anyone except koool-aid drinkers expected us to contend for a valley title this year. we were picked sixth for a reason. maybe next season will be the year.

As bad as we've been I still think this BU team has/had the potential to be a top 3 Valley team this year. But, as I've said before, the chemistry on this team is absolutely horrible! ....... and I think I know why.

Hey, After 5 games, we are only 1 game out of 3rd
