Tennessee Tech finished 19-12 last year, 13-7 in the Ohio Valley Conference.
Tennessee Tech is located in Cookeville, TN.
They are 2-2 this year, 1-2 against DI opponents, and various ranking services have them about #99 presently in RPI, with a #82 SOS.
The game starts at 8:05PM and will be on WMBD radio.
Bradley played Tennessee Tech in the Bracket Buster game last year (Feb. 18/06).
In that game Patrick O'Bryant almost got the 2nd triple double in Bradley's all time history, as POB had 19 points, 16 rebounds, and 9 blocks.
Bradley raced to a relatively easy 77-62 win, with Ruffin getting 12 pts, 5 assists, Cellus 14 pts, Boogie 16 points off the bench.
Tennessee Tech's Belton Rivers had 15 points off the bench, and Amadi McKenzie had 16 and 7 rebs.
Bradley has won the only two meeting ever between the two teams, with the other time being 12/16/72, a 100-83 win at Robertson Fieldhouse, when Seymouor Reed had 33 points/10 rebs.
Here is their athletic website:
Here is their schedule:
They lost at Kansas State and Missisippi, then won at Wisconsin-Milwaukee and won early in the season against a non-DI.
and their roster:
On paper, they should be fairly strong as 4 of their top 7 players return from last year.
Their top player is Anthony Fisher, a 6-2 junior guard who last year averaged 13 pts, 3 assists. Fisher is averaging 17.5ppg so far this year with 4 assists/gm, and they also have Belton Rivers, averaging 18.5ppg, with Amadi McKenzie getting 13.8ppg/11rpg.
Tenn. Tech has been picked variously from 2nd to 4th in the Ohio Valley according to different preseason previews, and both Rivers and Belton have gotten some 2nd team preseason All Conf. mention.
Tennessee Tech has not made an NCAA appearance since 1963.
Tennessee Tech's message board exists, but it's virtually nonexistent. There hasn't been a post on it in over a year:
The OVC has a board for all its schools, but it still doesn't have much, only one post this year.
PS---extra trivia question....
As noted above, Patrick O'Bryant almost got a tripple double against Tenn Tech last year, so
give me the name of the ONLY other Bradley player to ever get a triple double?
