I was at the game, and I just have to say kudo's to an AMAZING 9000 people at Carver. Be it the terrible out of bounds call, (and the subsequent 5 minutes of booing that nearly brought down the house) or the rousing ovation for our seniors, I was proud to be a part of this kind of crowd tonight. The excitement and tenacity we shown throughout was outstanding, and I hope these players realize home much we Bradley fans appreciate the effort they show on the court.

Wish I could have been there. From what I've heard the crowd was tremendous. 9000, for a so-called third rate tournament by some so called fans, is something to be proud of and will set well with future tournament selection committees. The kids are still playing and the fans are still excited. Great. We're proud of the team and the fans. GO BRAVES
Tonight was the best 9000 person environment I have ever been a part of for a college basketball game...it was truly great to be in the middle of it...
The entire crowd was into it from the very first possession. Kudos to everyone that was there and made it as electric of an atmosphere as it was.

Just got back to the Chicago area ... wow! That was a blast and certainly worth the 5 hours of driving. I had incredible seats and even got on the kiss cam. 
One of the loudest games I've ever been at, for sure.

Tonight was the first night that my ears were ringing after the game from the noise during Tulsa's FT attempts LOL.

I agree. Great crowd. Very loud. A very fun game to watch. The booing on that one play was deafening.
Chico-
My mom went and she said it was probably the loudest she could remember a crowd at Carver....
i don't know about that...
MSU was a reaaaaally loud game
and I think the comeback against Ohio was louder
but from my spot, every game is loud and crazy
I would agree with this sentiment. I though the crowd was great, into the game from the tip and very loud and involved the whole way. Just not quite on par with the best of the best but certainly GREAT.
The buzz and enviroment reminded me of an ISU regular season game. I think the fact that every lower bowl seat (even down in the corners were there are sometimes a few empties) was filled had a lot to do with that as well. You could feel the electricity from the time you walked into the arena.
You calling my mom a liar?
She wasn't at the MSU game- so in her opinion it was the loudest!!

Good call...the crowd certainly fed off the players emotions. We gave what they gave. No refs holding us back though....in fact they gave us even MORE fuel.
it was a very noisy crowd last night and also very smart. i really liked it when Salley hustled all by his lonesome against three or four TU players for that one loose ball for what seemed like 15 seconds and the crowd gave him a standing ovation and deservedly so. The student section actually began chanting Salley ..Salley ..Salley. That's how it should be every game with the crowd and players feeding off each other. Keep up the great work everybody.
Yup! As I said it should not matter whether we are playing Michigan St or Evansville. The crowd should be like this EVERY game.
thats one of the best things I see most every game while I am here... Bradley has smart fans. Even in a losing effort, hard work is appreciated... I almost wish Salley was around another year, if he were to keep that tenacity...
