  • Short-term Outlook

    So 2 exhibition games are in the books - probably about even with fans' expectations at this point.

    How many wins do you think we'll have after this 6-game stretch in 13 days?
    We start out with 4 homers and then go to Chi-town for 2, which will be tough. Among the 4 home games, Wofford likely presents the biggest challenge.

    4-2 but we can always hope.

      3-3. We're going to win some that we aren't supposed to win and lose some the same way.
      Bradley 72 - Illini 68 Final

      ???It??™s awful hard,??™??™ said Illini freshman guard D.J. Richardson, the former Central High School guard who played prep school ball a few miles from here and fought back tears outside the locker room. ???It??™s a hometown thing. It??™s bragging rights.??™

        I agree. 3-3 is my expectation. I think if we get off to a good start and win the first 2, we'll be in good shape and could take 4 games total.

          5-1 with a close loss to Wisconsin and the whole MVC will be a buzzing about a possible Bradley Cinderella season lol.

            I picked "Playing it Safe". I think Bradley is better than a last place team, but we have a long way to go.

              I think we'll still find it hard to win on the road. I hope I am wrong.
              We should have a celebration party if we can knock off Wisconsin, or even BYU/Nevada in Chicago. And almost nobody wins in Laramie, WY.

                I'll be in town for both the Wisky and UM games, where is the best place to watch those games? I went to the EP Buffalo WW when we played Illinois, the atmosphere was pretty good, but I've heard good things about the Fieldhouse.

                  Both those games are scheduled to be on the Big Ten Network. So any sports bar should have them, or could put them on if you asked for them.
                  BBW is a great place. They never rush you to get done or hassle you. I have never been to the Fieldhouse, but I have heard it is about the same.

                    BBW could be construed as something much different

                      Sorry for the typo; who knows, maybe BBW has good food, too.
