you guys should be thinking nation championship

Still a long shot for everyone of course, 16 teams. However I assure you, that you could do it. Do you have the most talent? Heck no. We had twice as much as you. However you play smart and in control, you play with maturity, and you could screw up the heads of the dukies if you play it right, should you get to that point.
I think a lot of it is that your players are angry, having not been respected. However if they start getting respect now, it could work against them, they might not be angry anymore. When you played us, you were too angry to be scared, while our freshmen and sophs collectively wet their pants under the pressure of sudden elimination fear.
No you don't have the most talent, however you could still win it all, I think your chances are as good as anyones.

The video link above mentions pressure and composure on Bradley's part, and I agree strongly. Nice point with the nerves aspect of the game. I think thats one of Bradley's strongest suits.

it may be hard to accept that you could end up nat champs

Our coach said that your guys got ours playing too fast, that was the key. Take the last play of the 1st half, you should never have had a shot then, generally Kansas was good about those last shot of the half plays. We throw it out of bounds forcing the issue (playing too fast). So instead of being down 4 to 7 points, we are down 10, big difference. So we come out second half down double digits, and so still have the "deer in the headlights" looks in our faces. You beat us mentally in that game. Marcelus looked fearless, I knew we had a problem when I saw the expression on his face. You will face better athletes overall, however you can beat them mentally. Maybe your guys were angry, not feeling respected. We felt that way when we beat Texas, and shot over 50% from 3-pt range. You did the same, anger works much better than fear for a team.
I don't know enough about Memphis, however if you get them out of their game, you will win that. I will be pulling for you.

Not sure who the anonymous kid is who did that piece, but he seemed to have most of the facts right and had reasonable opinions.
He even had the stats correct in POB's 14 pt, 19 reb game against WSU.
Given that he does a bunch of other entries on other topics, he does not appear to be a BU fan or a Peoria person.
