Note that Bradley made an effort to place home games on weekend dates this season-
Of the 6 non-conference home games, 3 are on Friday night, 2 are on Saturday, and one is Sunday late afternoon. Nice job!

so we still have an exhibition game that might be added, but as far as regular season non-conference games -
this should be all of them (13 games) to go with the 18-game MVC schedule

Says:
Bradley will host NCAA Division III UW-La Crosse in its lone, public exhibition game Sunday, Nov. 6 (2 p.m.) at Carver Arena.

So apparently, this will be the only exhibition game this season.

Is Illinois-Springfield in Division II or III?

I'm not so sure playing some of these non conference games on weekends and competing against high school games is a good idea. I can't see many high school kids, their parents or just high school basketball fans, choosing to see Illinois-Springfield, SEMO, Chicago State (if they are still open) or Texas-Arlington, over their high school team.

Can't make everybody happy.
