  • Arch Madness

    Here is the main site for Arch Madness-
    The official Arch Madness page for Missouri Valley Conference


    Hotel information- note that Bradley will be centered at a different hotel than they have had for the last 6 or 7 years.


    The Hyatt Regency St. Louis at The Arch, formerly the Adams Mark Hotel-


    Ticket Sales are way down for this year, especially without Creighton. Creighton sold well over 4,000 All Session ticket packages last year.
    The latest numbers for pre-sold All Session ticket packages
    Total: 5,208- Wichita State is far and away #1 with 2,449 (this is more than twice the number WSU sold last year), and Illinois State is #2 with 525. Indiana State is #3 at 500, and Northern Iowa is #4 at a little less than 400.
    Bradley is reportedly 5th with sales of around 240, then all the remaining schools are down around the minimum required of 225.

    The seating capacity for the Scottrade Center is about 22,000 for basketball, and there have been total sellouts in some past years. But that isn't going to happen this year.

    BU vs. LU

    Bradley and Loyola are now locked in to play in the 7 v 10 matchup in St. Louis on Thursday night. Hey, if there's a bright side, we avoided the WSU side of the bracket LOL

      Change of pace for us this year, I was getting used to seeing us play Drake in the final game of the season and then Thursday night in STL.
      If you cant go to school go to STATE!!

          Thanks for the positivity!

          As most fans realize, this year there is a big distinction between the 7-10 winner's fate versus the 8-9 winner's fate. If Bradley could beat Loyola next Thursday, and you know the old saying, "it's difficult to beat a team 3 times in one season" , they would face Indiana State on Friday as opposed to the 8-9 winner who will face #1 undefeated Wichita State. Maybe that will give our team a little extra incentive to play well and win round 1.

          Bradley will play in the 8:35 PM game next Thursday, March 6 vs. Loyola.
