Huge win and now a great chance for 3 straight and a show down in a week at home v Creighton.

Awesome.

[houstonbrave]

Great win on the road with a fantastic effort by SM and WE. Where were AW, TB, CR ?? Impressive we could win on the road with such poor production from those three....

Great win It wasn't pretty at times but showed alot of guts and will to win. Letd keep it going.Nice win with not much help from AW or CR. Alot of help from everyone else.

A great win by BU as they win their first in Carbondale since 2001! A few more made FT's and we win this game a little more easily, but agreed that the defensive effort was the big key to the win. And this is against a team that changed their philosophy this year toward a more offensive team. So the key for us is to continue to play that great defense which will help us overcome a bad offensive night anytime!

Yeah, those two need to refocus, especially CR. He has not had the greatest of years so far, but hopefully as long as the team keeps winning games, maybe he can eventually get his game together too.

Whew! 15-0 to start the game and hung on to win. Got back the loss at home. Sammy and Will were huge tonight. Need to do a better job on the boards but other than that a great road win. Let's make it 3 in a row on Saturday.

3 straight league games of holding opponents in the 50's...and 2 of those were on the road...that will win you some games folks!

[flipper]

tremondous effort by the braves. especially will and sammy. yes.

[chitown fanatic]

Just an absolutely unreal 180 defensively by the braves. I'd love to know the last time a team went from giving up 85 avg to 55 avg in 6 game span.incredible, and I think the team is believing it can win if it plays this way night in and night out. Now let's defend our home court and put the abyss behind us for good!

Great great GREAT win, Braves! Keep up that D!

Anyone else think that the difference in our season is essentially that SM is playing like he has in previous years over the last 3-4 games. I think Sammy's finally healthy! He's back to being a decent defender and a big plus on O. Keep it up Braves... Great to fight through off games for AW and CR. TB played hard, made two huge mistakes, and kinda screwed up the whole game-- I think we forget he's a sophomore because he's so good.

Nail meet hammer.....our confidence is rising. Thats why I said this game was HUGE in JL's tenure.

[Grassman]

And that Ladies and Gentlemen, to all you nay sayers, is why Sammy Maniscalco has been, is, and will be OUR point guard!!!
It is also why, two years ago, I said Bradley should sign DSE immediately,.My only question is what took then so long?
These guys have Heart and ,more importanly stones!
Those attributes cannot be coached!
