The Storyline
Bradley will be shooting for a fifth win before Thanksgiving for the first time in program history when the Braves host Eastern Illinois Wednesday night at Carver Arena ... After seeing its four-game, season-opening winning streak snapped Sunday by TCU, Bradley also will be trying to avoid its first losing streak of the young season ... The Braves have won 21 consecutive November home games and bring a 50-2 overall November home record into Wednesday's game against the Panthers.
The Series: Bradley Leads 5-4
Wednesday's game will be the 10th all-time meeting between Bradley and Eastern Illinois and the Braves hold a slim, 5-4 advantage ... Despite being separated by just 140 miles on Interstates 57 and 74, the two teams have met only once since 1927, a 99-84 Bradley victory Jan. 22, 1972 at Robertson Fieldhouse ... The other eight meetings were played as conference rivals in the old Illinois Intercollegiate Athletic Association from 1912-27.
In-State Home Dominance
Eastern Illinois will be making its first-ever appearance at Carver Arena Wednesday night ... Bradley is 79-21 (.790) all-time at Carver Arena against in-state opponents.
Take A Kid To The Game
Bradley is sponsoring a special ticket promotion for Wednesday night's game ... All youth (18 & under) will receive a free ticket with the purchase of a regular-priced ticket.

I expect to win this game easily...anything less than a double digit win would be dissappointing IMO

[ER3]

This is a game we should be in control of from the opening tip...
We need to get up early and put this team away...this should not be a game that is still in doubt during the last few minutes...

This will be my only appearance in Carver this season, so hopefully the Braves will put on a good show for me.

Agree 100%...there is no reason we should struggle with this team.

I would say the same thing, but I'll take any kind of win at this stage to build up the number of wins this early in the season.

Disgraceful. Back up the truck. WE is playing out of position. He can't score with his back to the basket and he can't defend against a 5. Either play him at the 4 or not at all. Helter skelter, dribble, dribble, drive the lane and base line until you get yourself boxed in ... THEN try to pass it ... made to order turnovers. You can see better coached, better disciplined teams at your local YMCA. Injuries ... they're not buying in .. it's time for the excuses to stop and the blame placed squarely where it belongs.
