Bradley-Va Tech

Some national buzz leading up to this Saturday game at Orleans Arena in Las Vegas.

While Rant Sports is not noted for its quality, this writer calls it the most important for the ACC this weekend (as per the quality aspect, he also says it will be played in Blacksburg).

It was also mentioned for the weekend NBC Sports Upset Alert:

Sat. 8:00 p.m.: Bradley at Virginia Tech: The Hokies started out the season so well, but they’ve come back to earth a bit in their last three games, losing two of them to the likes of West Virginia and Georgia State. They are also now dealing with having an even shorter bench, as Marshall Wood is sidelined with a foot injury. Bradley is no pushover this year. Ask Michigan, who struggled to get control against the Braves. If Jarell Eddie has another off night, James Johnson’s team could be in trouble.


Virginia Tech is dealing with the flu bug and some injuries and will have only 7 scholarship players available, so could be a golden opportunity for the feeling good Braves to STEAL one.

Since their early season loss at South Florida, the Braves have allowed just 58.2 points over 6 games.

Can Bradley be the 3rd team in the MVC to beat a BCS team? Hope so!

IF (and thats a huge IF) the braves win tournament they might be the third team with a shot(of course with good conference play) at an at large bid outside of CU and WSU. This is awfully wishful thinking on my part, but hey what the heck
GENO!

Bradley off to a great start up 24-14 with 8 minutes left in half. Bradley is 5-10 from 3. I don't think Bradley has made 5 threes in an entire game this year.

Couldn't find any TV or stream for this game so I'm assuming there is none?
