[bigbearfan]

go braves...

(what happened with the name change thing the ncaa landed on all schools associated with "indians"???)

[Myopicraiderfan]

If i wasn't in a datacenter I would break out a grill and some adult beverages. This is a great day of bball. I wish I was in STL.

[WuGameClan]

(what happened with the name change thing the ncaa landed on all schools associated with "indians"???)

maybe they argued that they are just a brave bunch of guys...no relation to native americas;)

[dawg_tired nemesis]

time plus score please....

[WuGameClan]

35 - 35 with 9:53 to go

[dawg_tired nemesis]

It is VERY hard to stay at work right now. Urge to watch basketball on tv rising.

[WuGameClan]

i hear you. i have to go to work at 5. and i dont have a computer i can use:( damn.

[WuGameClan]

wow! big 3 ball. BU 43 - 38

[dawg_tired nemesis]

I am starting to root for BU, I think WSU can handle them better than CU, but I also wouldn't mind CU again. They consider WSU lucky for beating them at WSU, but CU forgets about the 17 pt deficit they had to overcome just to win at CU.

[WuGameClan]

BU 43 - 42

[dawg_tired nemesis]

Game Over.

[WuGameClan]

OMG bu 50 - 45 44.7 left

[topher79]

Sounds like you Bradley fans can thank the Shocker fans for cheering their asses off.

[Hail Red & White]

Marcellus with a rainbow 3 to give Bradley a 50-44 lead. :48 to go. Day at line for 2 for CU. Hits 1--Bradley ball with :45 to go, and a 50-45 lead. Both teams have shot very poorly from the floor today.

[Myopicraiderfan]

50-45 47.9 secs

[dawg_tired nemesis]

wow. sounds like a good game.

[scottpt99UE]

Sounds like it is a good game. I think the winner is in, loser is hoping for no upsets in other tourneys.

[Myopicraiderfan]

Bring it on Braves!

Go Shox!

[WuGameClan]

54 47 Bradly v WSU. should be a good one

[Ace Dad]

Shockers are a lock.

Need for BU to win on Saturday.

[Myopicraiderfan]

Final 54-47

[Hail Red & White]

Whew! 54-47 Bradley. They need another win at least to have a chance for the NCAA's. Creighton will have an agonizing 9 days to see what their fate will be.

[Yoshi]

Unreal. Start sweating it CU. :(

[Ace Dad]

Still want to fire Les? LOL LOL LOL LOL

[topher79]

I think Bradley is in. Considering what they've done over the past month the committee won't hold it against them for losing to the regular season champs.

[DBear]

Hats off to Bradley. I haven't seen much of them but I see what all of the talk is about. Impressive win.

[RoundhouseSteve]

Braves came to play. Great match tomorrow. Congrats. !!!!




GO SHOCKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Hail Red & White]

Shockers got a good game from Indiana State for 35 minutes. Bradley had to go a full 40 to put away the Bluejays. Fatigue factor advantage goes to WSU. Hopeully, the Braves will have better luck shooting from the floor Saturday--intriguing matchup!

[siubball32]

great win braves

[OilerPimp]

Cellus came up big when we needed it. How about the game out of Boogie?

Love them seniors!!!

[DUShock]

The team absolutely no body wants to play, The Bradley Braves! Ugh! Should be a good game. It will be interesting to see where Creighton sits with the selection committee, obviously we need as many Valley schools in as possible.

Go Valley!!

Go Shocks!!!!

[SalukiProf]

Grats on the win - six is still possible.

GO PANTHERS!

GO BRAVES!

GO VALLEY!

GO DAWGS!

[Bluejay03]

Creighton still should be in, they have played so well considering the situation they have been in this year and the last handful of games they have been without Dotzler and that hurts a lot, missing our floor leader and a great defender, it will be nice to have him back for the NCAA TOURNAMENT!!!

[getreal4]

Congrats Braves! Les is the Man! :D

Braves get closer to that at large.... Jays move from a for sure in to the last in/out category.

[Majik45]

I'm in my hotel in St. Louis. Braves didn't look very good today, and Creighton did a tremendous job of shutting down O'Bryant and Sommerville. My hats off to Dana Altman on a great game plan. Bradley made some big plays down the stretch though, and the shot by Sommerville from the corner was the dagger.

[stormpanther5012]

Bradley has the talent to be the best team in the Valley, tomorrow will be one heck of a game as WSU is a very good team and Bradley is very hot and streaking right now. Should be one of the best Valley Tournys ever. Congrats to BU, tough luck for the Bluejays.

[Bradleyfan]

Still want to fire Les? LOL LOL LOL LOL

Just for the record, I was not one of those Bradley fans who wanted to fire Les. :D

Go Valley!!

Go Shocks!!!!

So far so good for the Valley. Everyone is winning that should be in order to maximize the potential number of teams in from the Valley. Four should be in for sure, but there is no reason five or six can't get in. You listening Bilas and Majerus?! :rolleyes:

[Bradleyfan]

Congrats Braves! Les is the Man! :D

Ditto from me! All I said from the beginning of the season is to give Les a chance, even when I got on him after that Drake loss! :D

[WSUShokker]

Congrats to Bradley!!! and lets hope CU can still get their ticket punched as well...look forward to the game tommorow..good luck to both of us...but..GO SHOCKS

so if a winless team had a bunch of one legged players they should get an invite to tourn based on thier situation and not their body of work?

[Angrybluejaydan]

so if a winless team had a bunch of one legged players they should get an invite to tourn based on thier situation and not their body of work?

If the one legged players get to play with both legs for the NCAA's, then yes. The Jays aren't a winless team though.
Dotzler is available for the NCAA's and the Jays are alot better with him at the point. He needed a month to heal his PCL. They lost three close games without him. The commitee will look a little closer at the three losses without Josh.
