Bradley's next game is a road game at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Saturday, Dec. 20, 2008, at 7:05 pm. This the return game from last year's Bracket-Buster game in Peoria. Bradley won that game 84-72.-

The game will be televised by Comcast cable, channel 74 in the Peoria area.

Bradley is now 5-4, and their RPI is at 78, as of 6 pm 12/14/08. UW-M is 5-5, and their RPI is currently at 207.
They average 2,540 attendance, but the UWM students will be on break, and I expect there will be a sizeable number of Bradley fans there.
The game will be played at U.S. Cellular Arena, located at 400 West Kilbourn Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53203, near the center of downtown Milwaukee.
It was formerly the MECCA (The Milwaukee Exposition Convention Center and Arena).. It has a capacity of about 12,700 people for some events, but it is listed at 10,783 for basketball.

The pregame party is at the Hyatt Regency Milwaukee. SOme of us are staying there saturday night. BU30 has the details on the party. You can PM him for the information. He is suppose to call me this week with the details. When I find out, I will post here.
 
It's very close, about 1/2 block away.


They should build a sky walk....:) Not to get off-topic but how cool will that be for BU games IF the Marriott gets built. Not only for road fans but for the home team fans. On those bad nites park and take the sky walk to the PCC.


What a great mkt. tool for out of towners.


Hope to see you all at UWM.
 
For anyone traveling up to Milwaukee the next few days, be very cautious. Lots of ice thru Friday morning from Peoria north and then Milwaukee is suppose to get 12-14 inches of snow from tomorrow thru sunday morning. Going to be nasty on them roads, especially in the rural areas.
