The non-conference games are nearly finished, and the first MVC conference game is tomorrow, Friday, Dec 23- Loyola at Missouri State-
Bradley still has 1 more non-conference game (Friday at Mississippi), and their next game is at Drake next Thursday, Dec. 28.
The Missouri Valley has done well this season, despite the defection of Wichita State, and despite the fact that 9 of the 10 players on the 1st and 2nd All-MVC teams last year did not return this season.-
The MVC is still ranked #8 in Conference RPI-
7 MVC teams have winning percentages higher than 0.630, and 4 teams already have 10 wins-
Here is a good article from Jim Benson of the Bloomington Pantagraph about the success of the MVC so far-
One thing he says in his segment about Bradley is this-
The Braves have won 10 games before Jan. 1 for only the third time in school history.
He got that from an incorrect source, and it is not true.
This is actually the 8th time Bradley has won 10 or more games before January 1-
In addition to 2017, it happened in 2006, 1985, 1965, 1960, 1950, 1948, and 1947.
