Too soon....

I agree. I'm always worried about Creighton and especially so for this one for some reason. Maybe it's just a gut feeling but I think CU is on the verge of an explosion and Bradley is in it's path.
See an i get an exact opposite vibe... I feel like CU is on the verge of a self destruction, and we are going to kick them down that path. Provided we don't look to far ahead, play with intensity... etc.... etc.... etc....
 
Believe me I will be ecstatic with a win, but I can't even imagine what DA is making that team do these next few days to get them ready for us. My money is on them getting fired up. Didn't say money on them to win...just for them to be R-E-A-D-Y.....really ready. I hope we come out to play on Saturday as much or if not more so than last night.

This could very much be true! They have been having some team issues early on and just maybe it is coming from their best players. Part of a coaches job is to be a good chemist but you need the right ingredients to make it happen unless you are an alchemist. One thing about our team is that we play like a team, unselfish and our leaders are always pointing to others of why we are successful. BradleyBraves is constantly pointing out that he does not care to see any new faces in our rotation in fear that it may change the positive chemistry our team has. I believe we have enough leadership that it would take a complete selfish person (which I believe JL will not recruit or tolerate) to divide this team. If anyone has played on a winning team at any level you all know that team chemistry goes a long way. I've seen teams with good talent not great play their way to championships while great talent lose it all.

In baseball one only has to look at the Detroit Tigers and see that they messed with their chemistry and it all went down hill quickly with all that talent.
 
BU will not win them all this year, but I think we can win enough to finish ahead of the other 9 teams. That would be a great season!

DaCoach, What number of wins are you thinking it will take this year? Do you think 13-5 will do it? 14-4? To get to 14-4 we probably need to win them all at home and win 3 more road games. I would expect the 3 easiest road games left are InST,SUI,and NIU. Wining all the home games will be tough enough, doing that and 3 more road wins seams like alot to ask.
What are you thoughts?
 
The rest of the conference schedule, home games are bolded:

CU
InST
SIUC
UNI
InST
WST
ISU
UNI
DU
CU
EU
MoST
EU
DU

Is it just me or with the way the valley teams are shaping up to be it seems like the end of our schedule won't be so easy afterall. With EU, CU, DU, ISU all on the road in the 2nd half and some tough home games also. It seems like our schedule is shaping up to be gradually harder and harder. Which is why it is too soon. haha
 
Let's face it, we lost to probably the best team in the Valley tonight so I will not be suprised if we win 2 of the next 3. We win against Indy and split the other 2.
 
That's what I would think but Indy just beat ISU so they may not be so much of a cupcake. We'd be fortunate for a win there.

And I know some people still don't put much credibility into Evansville but SIUC took care of business against them in Carbondale.

UNI is playing good...they took down the team we just lost to while on the road...not much else to say there.

It's gonna be tough.
