This could possibly be one of many (fingers crossed) big wins that'll put us over the top next year ... I realllly just want to hand them back the behind kicking we got there last year!
I know I'm jealous. This is a great big-name big time program coming to Carver. It's great for you guys and great for the Valley especially after you guys beat them.
Dinma Odiakosa 6'8 255......The Nigerian Nightmare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 37 points and 27 boards in 2 wins over Bradley. "Will Egolf is 6'9 and he had 4 rebounds. That's not good enough and he's not good enough"....Dick Versace 2/9/10
It's always easier to beat a good team early in the year before they gel, ala DePaul. Unfortunately, we're also now that good team that is looking to gel
I can't remember the last time that BU played a potential top ten team in the non-con in Peoria.....

Houston, the Media Guide doesn't mention it is an ot game, but I believe ya if you say it is true.
And just in case... Bradley was not in the MVC from the 51-52 season to the 54-55 season (due to events surrounding the Drake/Oklahoma A&M football controversy).

So it appears that 1977 was the last time that BU played a top ten team in the non-con schedule (UNLV). That's a long time between opportunities.....
