Role reversal

Let's turn the clocks back to last year. We had to win out to set up a showdown with Drake for the championship. From that point we did not play great in St. Louis. As for Indiana St. have to give them credit where credit is due. In my opinion yes they are playing good basketball, but the starters play a large portion of the game because of a lack of bench strength. You play that many minutes a game it will wear on you. Will we see the same thing with Indiana St. down in St. Louis. Will the wear and tear of a long season catch up to them with a short bench. Yes we will probably finish 2nd or 3rd in the conference. Remember 2019 I believe we finished as a 4th seed and won the tournament. We played Mich St pretty even in that game only to lose in the final few minutes. Still believe BU can win the tournament. Will not be easy, but it can be done. "Go Braves":mad:​​​​​​

Bradley tied for 5th place in 2018-19 with UNI and Illinois State, but they won the tiebreaker and got the 5th seed - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_Missouri_Valley_Conference_men's_basketball_tournament#Seeds
 
I just hope we can make it to the championship game!They are going to have to play a lot better than the last 2 games to do it.They cannot have starts like have the last 2 games and expect to come back and win.

I think you nailed it. We basically had 10 bad minutes in the 1st half in b2b games, but aside from that, we've played outsanding ball the last 2 months. Set the course early and don't let up. We'll be alright I think and the guys will come together and be hungry to win every game til the end!
