From the Yahoo sports site, here is their roster-

and their stats after 1 game-

Their best player, senior Leon Powell, did not play against Missouri because of a sprained knee. His status for Wednesday's game is unkown. SEMO has the best team they have had in many years. They start 6'4" senior guard Marcus Brister, a former Iowa State player, Michael Porter, a former Missouri State player, Lucas Nutt, a sharpshooting guard who is the son of coach Dickey Nutt, and an exciting sophomore player 6'8" Tyler Stone from Memphis, who is a transfer from Missouri. Stone lead them in scoring against Missouri with 18 points. They also have a couple exciting freshmen from Memphis, 6'4" guard Tevin Wilkerson and 6'8" forward Nino Johnson, who Rivals and Scout rated as a 3-star recruit, but others rated as 4-stars. If Leon Powell doesn't play, Johnson is their best rebounder.

Their star Leon Powell hurt his knee a week ago and is still day to day...

Going to be awesome game! I have 2 Front Tickets for the game I put in the other Ticket Exchange and Member Services thread if anybody is interested.

There has not been any announcement yet about WTVP telecasting this game.

This has been official for sometime... but I guess BU does not want to release to help with the weak ticket sales. WTVP.com has this on their website:

[Da Coach]

Good, then we are not revealing any state secrets. And since everyone here already has their tickets, we aren't hurting sales.

[tornado]

surely all the devoted season ticket holders will snarf up a bunch and the place will sell out -- and if it doesn't I think it says a lot for those who claim to be good, devoted BU fans

Even if you aren't happy about it not being held downtown -- just look at it as a semi-road game that's not even out of town...I still encourage you to go!

Hopefully we'll see some more students since this is on campus plus free t-shirts.

Hopefully we'll see some more students since this is on campus plus free t-shirts.

I would hope so! The band alone will double the student turnout!

SEMO is clobbering Harris Stowe-

[QPS]

There are several piles of one foot square pieces of wood sitting in the RC lobby. Maybe pieces of floor from the fieldhouse? Would BU being giving these away at Wednesday's game?

[Da Coach]

Yes, that is a promotion that should be announced soon.

Hopefully, we should also hear soon which Bradley players and coaches from 1981-1982 will be there for the throwback celebration. I have heard that now that Dick Versace is coaching at Northwood University with Rollie Massimino, he has had to cancel his plans to be here. But Tony Barone is scheduled to speak at the Game Day luncheon and be at the game.
We can also count on one of the starters from that team to be there- Willie Scott, but I've heard we might see a couple other teammates. We hope to hear soon.


BTW- here are the stats from the SEMO win over Harris-Stowe-

If this game does not sellout then something is wrong, 20.00 tickets maybe too high for some fans with a down economy , if they still have tickets for sale tomorrow then they need to come up with a family plan like 4 for 40.00 or any reduction that will get this sold out, I had people saying 10.00 was high for just an exb. game so price is definitely a factor.
