Looks like the game opened at Bradley -9.5, and is now -8.5- https://www.vegasinsider.com/college...-murray-state/

Ugh. CBS Sports Network. Really wish we would break up with them.

Yeah it sucks. One of a couple MVC games for BU I will be unable to watch.

[LittleBrave]

I wouldn't be surprised either, but the Racers can defend the three

We'll see but I bet Vegas opens 9.5-10.5

Welcome Racer! GL to Murray St except for tonight. LOL
GREAT support every season for the Racers and glad to have you guys in the Valley!

Carver Arena in Peoria is nice, but not fantastic IMO. It's incredible tho when 8K+ fans show up!

This game tonight against Murray State is really a MUST win to keep Bradley in top 4 Conference Status! If Murray St. Was to pull the upset, it would give them an edge by winning both games and could ultimately knock Bradley out of a 3rd or 4th seeding if they were tied with the same conference standing at end of season! So Go Braves, win 9 in a Row, keep the momentum going because you'll have to face most likely the Best team in Terra Haute this Saturday!!!!

I wouldn't be surprised either, but the Racers can defend the three, when they want to. There is also still way to much of the team that got pasted by 38 to y'all last season so there's that. Really just depends on how selfish they are feeling Wednesday.

We'll see but I bet Vegas opens 9.5-10.5

whelp

Big W' tonight....9 in a row baby...

[Da Coach]

Bradley stalled out a little late in the 2nd half, and Murray State got hot and cut the Braves 16 point lead down to 5. But Bradley managed to hold on for the 8 point win, 71-63.

Not our best game lately, especially second half, but we won.

Hick was great on defense and solid on offense. Deen had a couple out of control moments in the second half (which is rare for him lately), but overall he was still good. Thank goodness he’s ok with the ankle. Leons had one of his better games. Davis was really good tonight I thought and did those little things again. Thomas did a nice job defensively. Burch was ok and made some nice moves and passes. We shot free throws pretty well tonight too!

The bad to me was Hannah and Atlasom. Hannah had a solid scoring game and defensively, but he was real reckless with the ball today as seems to happen to him on occasion. He has to shore that up or stop being given the ball to handle so much at the top of the key. Atlason has looked a little lost lately. I still believe in him, but he needs to hit a big shot or something to break out of this funk. Overall, I will take the win and there was a lot of good, but we need to bring a better game the next two.

On to a huge game Saturday!

BU14, your take is spot on. Also confused why Kyle Thomas disappeared after playing some nice D in the 1st.
Gotta say, much closer than I expected and very impressed with the effort from Murray St. They really don’t have any quit in them and play much better than the overall record indicates.

Help. Why is Jonovic not show as a player.

Not showing as a player where?

[LittleBrave]

Leons with an excellent all-around game. Duke was due for coming down from the cloud...Hick solid
Davis missed a few threes in the 2nd half that could have put the game away, but was off.

Burch provided some nice energy as usual and a couple nice buckets.

Murray's D in 2nd half made adjustments to cause our O to sputter a bit.

Let's get focused for the Mores on Sat and keep the streak rollin'!

I’m not sure why Atlasom was playing. He can’t play defense. It seems that when he’s in the game, that our team doesn’t score. He appears unsure and hesitates with the ball. I realize that he’s a freshman, but I think there are better options for now.

Ha! kept it under 10. Leading the nation in Moral victories!

Yeah man, they play hard. That will pay off long term.
