We have the talent to win this game. This is important as far as having a chance at winning the regular season championship again this season. We obviously need to defend much better and hold them to 72 points or less.

I'm not local, so I can't attend. Sure hope alot of BU fans make the trip. It really is a critical game to win.

I Hope Win or Lose, Bradley Gives Indiana St.a Challenging Game! When we played in Peoria, I.SU. really took it to Bradley building up a huge Lead which makes it very hard to come back! Yes we came back against S.I.U., but the Odds are very much against that Happening again! I just hope we can be close the entire game! That in itself will be a huge Challenge against an Indiana St. Team that will be highly Motivated in their house with what Appears will be a large crowd! It's really Hard to win on the road especially against what I consider the best Valley Team! Would be incredible to win, but they are the better team so this would be a mild upset if Bradley could pull this one out! However, I've said this before, as long as we can maintain a top 4 seed, anything can happen at the MVC tourney on a neutral sight in a 1 game elimination! So I pray we give I.S.U a close game and win or lose, have our chance to play them again in the MVC tourney!!! That's what really Matters!!!!!

Chance for another Quad 1 win here. ISU-Blue sitting at 25 in the NET rankings.

[BUBraves2006]

I recognize that InSU is the class of the league so far but that line of -8 seems kinda high.

[Stevezall]

Just read the Game Tonight in Terra haute is a Sellout!!!! The first their since 2019! In a way this makes me proud that not only do the Indiana St.Fans finally recognize what a great team they have, but also that they came out because a very good seasoned Bradley team is in the house on a 9 game win Streak! Go Braves...let's give both fan basis what they want....A Great Game between 2 MVC Championship Contenders!!!!!

[Da Coach]

It is looking like the game that is currently on ESPNU, Charlotte vs. Tulane, could likely last past 5:00 pm.
Dave Snell just announced on air that the start time in Terre Haute has been pushed back 10 minutes, but if ESPNU still does not have the start of the game, you can watch the Bradley-Indiana State game on ESPN+- https://www.espn.com/espnplus/player...9-c11bb6a45592

Feel lucky to only be down 4 pts with 2 pts from Hickman in the half.

[BUfan14]

Ya, our players weren’t at their best, but neither were theirs. Two good teams going at it, fun to see. I’ll take down four at half on the road, especially given Deen and Hick didn’t shoot well at all that half. Nice to see Atlason hit some big ones, I’ve been saying he needs to hit a big one to get going.

One thing they seem to be doing is letting Deen drive in after driving him off the three point line and trying to force him to put it up (at his height that’s always a risk) or make a bad pass. Deen has been making good decision lately, but I almost wonder if he’s taking the bait too much tonight so far. It’s a risk, but maybe I’d give Burch the ball at point a little more and see what happens and how Indiana State responds. He can be reckless, but he also can drive and pass well.

Kent is a frustrating guy to oppose with those offensive rebounds and put backs, but but I’d let him shoot that three every time.

Need Leons, Hick, or Deen (probably two of the three) to step up in half two to win.

[Tommy]

Keep feeding Atlason. His shot is on tonight and he’s playing good D. Liked the stuff at the rim!
Hick doesn’t have 2 bad halves in a row which bodes well for us.

[BUfan14]

I guess the solution was just spread them out to open the lane and have Deen use his speed and run all around until he’s open. What a start by him this half! Still think one more guy needs to step up at some point this half, but man it’s fun with Deen gets in these modes.

[egib52]

Deen on another heater!!! He's really figured out how to create space this year.

[egib52]

I heard in the pregame that Kent transferred to play with Avila, has anyone heard this before?

These refs are allowing NBA level continuation.
