How about those Braves!!!

Illini · Mar 18, 2006

Wow! I never thought they could get it done, and said just 3 hours ago that they would lose by 12 or more. I was going to lay the points with Kansas, but since I've grown into a bit of a Bradley fan over the years, I laid off, and decided to just root for them to win. Glad I did, because this was fun to watch. They have a very good team, they just play dumb basketball a lot of the time, when they are away from home. The good Braves team showed up tonight. On to Round 2!

I hope Bill Self's house doesn't get burned down tonight. But it might.

Yeah, but anything more than 1 win in the Big Dance is gravy. This made their year.

They also saved the MVC's rep this year...if they lose, MVC goes 1-3 and gets bashed in the media, after WVU's spanking of SIU and Gtown holding off Northern Iowa. 2-2 gives them some credibility...Bradley looked great. Congrats to their backers, and more importantly, MVC fans everywhere.

Bradley was flat out better than Kansas. Other than a two minute spurt by Kansas, where bradley turned the ball over 4 straight times down the floor, it was complete domination.
