Valpo and Evansville simply protected home court. That's the nature of the Valley.
You play better at home, get a friendly call, put the other guy in the corner, pull out the win.
Ill State coughed that one up. The buzzer beater was the most predictable part of that rally.
I don't think U of E beats Drake if Norton is in the whole game.

Hard to say that Norton's injury cost them the game, but I will say that I don't think it would have gone to 2 OT's if Norton is there at the end.

Unless something really changes Bradley will be back to playing on Thursday night. I feel pretty confident in this. It's ugly all around. On the court, off the court, in post game comments. All of it.

Ditto for Illinois State. Those last few minutes was our season in a nutshell. Karma for that half court shot for a crappy finish to a game with all those Seniors that provide no composure or leadership in late game scenarios. Yarbrough went back-court charge, back-court charge, then foul a three point shooter (up 3) within 30 seconds of each other.

See you on Thursday Bradley

As a Bradley fan, I have no idea what is going on. We are definitely heading for Thursday right now.

I was lucky enough to have to sit in the hospital all day yesterday with my wife as she broke her leg, so that saved me from having to watch the garbage basketball Bradley played last night.

At the rate things are going, there should be 8 teams playing on Thursday night.

Before the season, I was really hoping that Missouri State would escape the Thursday night. It doesn't look like that is going to happen, especially given our record in road games. We are only one game deep in to the conference season, and other teams have their own problems, so anything can happen. At least this year I won't be preparing for a high seed like I was last year.
