The Aces are up 14 on SIU late.

Since Evansville joined the MVC, have we ever been 6 games behind them in the standings?

Since Evansville went Div 1, have they ever been to the Sweet 16?

[Da Coach]

Well, technically, neither has Bradley, because it was just a lucky fluke.

Don't think so. All the more reason we should never be 6 games behind them in the standings.

You know - it's these stupid cliche comments that trigger a "Yea - Uh-huh - Right on" from the huddle of *****s that disgusts me more and more. Man - some people must sit around and think of ways to make things worse and worse... create a frenzy. Crikeys... I guess "crap" doesn't happen anywhere but at Bradley. Or.... Also Sounds like Ron Santo calling a game... "OMG - in all my years, I've NEVER seen that - only the Cubs"... farkin knee-jerk crap!

I was honestly just asking a question. Talk about a knee-jerk reaction.

So what if 'crap' happens elsewhere. In the 100+ year history of our program seasons like this very rarely happen. Are people allowed to be upset?

Whatever man - ask your questions - have your fun.

Wow. Someone get up on the wrong side of the bed today? Jeez.

Who's having fun this year? Losing isn't fun for anyone.

Getting back to the other MVC games Saturday..

-first ..those who anointed Indiana State as a great Valley story and right up there with the best teams in the MVC might have been a little premature.
The Sycamores lose again at Creighton, and drop four games out of the Valley lead -- and they face Wichita State and Missouri State next...
they could end up a .500 team.

Jake Kelly - 4 pts, 3 turnovers, and Dwayne Lathan 5 turnovers
Echenique 3 pts, 5 turnovers, and Lawson off the bench for 8 pts.
Doug McDermott had another nice game but played 33 minutes - more than anyone else...an injury to him would hurt the Jays

-the SIU's loss at Evansville had way more to do with SIU's 2nd half collapse after leading at halftime, than it had to do with Evansville being good.
Bocot 0-4 and zero pts, Teague 2 pts/1 reb, Seck 2 pts/3reb

The MVC Refs were really into this one...
nearly 60 fouls called and 67 FT's shot
