      Not like it matters much now, but we need a UNI and SIU win tonight. With a UNI win, they clinch a 1st place tie and would be ripe for a letdown Saturday. A drake win and they take command for the 4-5 game against CU or ISU. personally, I'd like to play CU over ISU. And I'd like to play them at 8:30 Friday. A CU win over them Saturday will help make that a reality We just don't have the horses to beat ISU Red.

        How do you figure?


        Yes, we need a UNI win, BUT that win and they celebrate on our home floor w/ an MVC championship if they beat us Saturday afternoon.


        As far as I can tell, either way we're in trouble...our real shot to not play on Thu. now comes in the form of a tie w/ Drake as we beat them twice....


        So yes, like you said, it depends on where ISU finishes, but how do we finish is the real concern?

          I'm assuming we grow a spine, have some pride , and take out UNI on Saturday. Maybe I'm delirious

              We can't hold two 10 pt leads against isu. I have no reason to believe not wanting to see UNI celebrate on our floor will give any extra motivation to our guys.

                To avoid likely playing on Thursday, we really need a UNI win tonight. That's the bottom line. An SIU win would also be nice, but is not as necessary.

                The key game for Bradley if we want to avoid playing on Thursday is our game at Indiana State. Win that one, and we're likely fine due to tiebreakers. Lose that one, and it's 50/50 which day we open play in STL.

                  Say what? You think 8-10 gets 6th? We need 2 wins in the final 4 games! Not an easy thing, we play Lawson, Durley, and Eglesader all of whom owned the boards during our first ,meeting.
                  We need an upset somewhere.
                  9-9 would probably do it.

                    I think 8-10 will result in a tie for 6th...probably a 3 or 4 way tie. Beat Indiana State and we'd be looking good in any tiebreakers we're in with Drake and Indiana State.

                    Remember last season, 8-10 tied for 5th. Don't think that'll happen this season, but if SIU wins tonight, it could.

                      OOPS! I forgot 8-10 did it last year!
                      8-10 is pretty disappointing! for that matter so is 10-8..
                      Look forward to seeing you and your boys in St. Louis. Hopefully NOT Thursday night.

                        I think WSU and Indy St. would be our best shots at two wins. But UNI will lose a game or two before the end, at least in my opinion. Hopefully they lose Saturday against us!

                            I don't know.....Evansville beat the mighty Shockers, so anything can happen in this conference!

                              is winning on the road by 9 considered a tough nite? this is good team. not really impressed with any one individual but they play well as a team. especially defensively.

                              yes and they have depth...
