Every game being important...

[Bradley3342]

Kudos to this Bradley team for what they have accomplished this year! I can’t help but think what might have been had we not lost some of those games in the middle of the year especially the likes of IUPUI and Eastern il and our early Valley games. Just 3 or 4 more wins and we wouldn’t have been a 15 seed and not playing Michigan State in the first round. Coach Wardle said in his post game interview that he thought we played well enough to beat almost any team we would have played yesterday and I think he is right. Just goes to show you how important every game really is and not taking anyone for granted...

I totally agree. On the way home all I could think about was what would we have done as even a 13 or 14 seed.

I can't say I agree. We made the NCAA and played a team that was ranked in the top 5 in the nation. Where else do we get a chance to showcase our talent against a team ranked that high?

We showed up and had a great chance to pull off a win, and that was an awesome experience. I see many more opportunities for a victory in the tournament in or future.

In the second round or sweet sixteen. What are you talking about? You would rather have a 15 seed then have a higher one?

Yeah, maybe the way I said it wasn’t quite right. Bradley3342’s original post was right in all ways. I guess my point is we can’t bemoan the past and need to revel in what we did accomplish. Every game certainly does matter and I expect many higher seeded tournament appearances in the future!
