    Evansville was picked 11th in the MVC Preseason Poll. - https://mvc-sports.com/news/2023/10/...-favorite.aspx
    Leading scorer, 6'9" forward Ben Humrichous, missed 5 straight games with a foot injury, including their Jan. 10 game at Bradley. He returned and played 11 minutes and scored 7 points in their Jan. 17 game vs. Valpo. But, then he missed the next 3 games, and now has returned again and played in the last two. In their last game, a 63-62 win at Valparaiso, Humrichouse played 24 minutes, was 3-12 overall, and 0-5 from three, and had 8 points, well below his average of 15 points per game.

        We are better then Evansville and another must win game. Jump on them early again and keep the offense going so we score 75 points or more. No doubt the defense needs to be good but we should be able to hold their offense to 64 points or less.

          UE with one of the most devoted fan bases in the Valley, along with Murray St. and our Braves.
          Get off to a good start and come out with intensity like we did vs. ISU-red.
          Can't afford to lose road games like this if we want to finish 1st or 2nd.

            11 pts in 12 minutes....time to wake up.
            Nobody hitting the boards or following their shot. Lacking an effort, Evansville wants it more right now and it shows!

              Did Wardle leave the Bradley team at home today? Down double figures in the first half is not the BU team we have seen recently. 7 minutes to go in the first half and we are down 15.

                  Terrible half on the Braves turnover after turnover.

                    Their 4 fans at the game sure are whiny. Especially backwards hat guy in the front row.
                    Go Braves!

                      LOL haha. Down 5 after that first half, I think BU is lucky. I think will tighten things up and win it in the 2nd half.

                        Let's see.... Can't take care of the ball, can't shoot, not defending well. Other than that, looking good!

                          TO's have been baaad, several travels? just weird stuff, and not able to score well. Think they must have been overlooking this game with Drake in sights, I think Wardle will have them ready for 2nd half.

                            So far feeling lucky to be this close. Braves have at least 10 T/Os, most unforced.
                            Hickman, Leons and Hannah had very bad 1st halves....not much from Thomas, let's start out this half with a purpose.
