  • Bradley vs Duke

    Hmmmm......

    Posted one other time and removed one other time.

    Not a big fan of this if it happens, I prefer home and home with similar teams not buy games. But if we can get national exposure on the Motherships maybe its good. Then again our last time we dipped the toe into BCS territory on TV v Florida that didnt workout so great.

        It would be nice to play at such a storied place...hopefully it will happen some day..
        I just hope talk coming from inappropriately leaked sources doesn't torpedo efforts...

          Saw that post back then as well. Would love to see it happen!
          Bradley 72 - Illini 68 Final

            I would love it. If JL and staff can pull it off that would be great. I'm not sure why there would be any dissent regardless of how the contract was set up. One game there and done, one there and a neutral, 2 there one in Carver (which would be beyond great) all work for me. BU basketball should strive to play the best and in doing so we will have to concede a bit, like it or not. Until we become a Butler or Gonzaga the ability to dictate terms to the BCS teams will be dubious at best. That is just a reality.

              As we used to say during the DV era, "bring em on, bring em all on".

                I agree this would be cool if it turns out to be true, but I would really hope for a away-home-away like the series with Michigan St. or at least a netural site game. We'd only have a shot at winning in Carver or on a neutral floor and the game(s) at Duke would probably be over by the first half like the ones at Michigan St., Butler, and Florida of the past few years.

                  Duke is one of about a dozen or so programs no one should mind playing in a one-and-done.

                    Absolutely!

                    Hopefully the type of game that helps get another known program into carver

                      I agree! As much as I would love to get a home game in a series with Duke, if we couldn't get that I would still definitely play them one-and-done at their place.

                      I'm not sure where this came from or how true it is looking at other posts, but this would get me very excited if it is true.

                        If true, I'd be more inclined to travel to this game (if tix were available) than the HOF tournament in Springfield MA. Just personal preference...nothing more.

                          A 2 and 1 would be even better. If it were me, I'd give Duke 100% that nights revenue and make up for it with increased season tickets and pre-sale of 4 game power packs

                              I'm all for playing tough games in non-conference for several reasons - maybe the biggest for preparing your team for conference play!

                              Way to go BU!!!
