Does anyone know if Bradley is sponsoring pregame gatherings in St. Louis for fans like they always have in past years? Is anyone going to St. Louis? Are there any fans left?
 
Definitely going, probably to watch BU lose on Thrusday....espicailly if they end up playing Evansville. Going more to drink yummy beer at Schlafly's.
 
Got a group of three heading to St. Louis like always. Hope we can get a win Thursday and at least give Creighton a scare Friday.

You are wrong coyote..... if BU wins as the 10 seed, they will play the 2 seed which will in all likelihood be Creighton. Wichita will almost certainly be the 1 seed and play the 8/9 winner.

Cowboy is right if the Braves are lucky enough to get out of the Thursday game we will play Creighton Friday night at 6:05 PM.
 
Day 1 will be the beginning of an 11 day vacation for my wife and me. Of course some skeptical people would probably say that we've been playing like we've been on vacation all season. No matter how low we get I'll always support our team. Certainly will be interesting to find out who we'll be playing as I think we could have a chance to win if we play either Drake or UNI. We have no shot against ISU Red and Blue, SIU and Evansville. Be curious to see how Wichita handles being the favorite as they haven't won the Valley tournament since before it moved off campus and into St. Louis since 1991. By the way only Wichita, Evansville and us have not won in St. Louis. Regardless how BU has always done it's always a good time. I love watching other teams' fans getting pissed off at Valley officating plus there's normally good basketball being played. The only game I've missed since it's been in St. Louis was the Deon miracle shot game as my cousin, who had already been married a few weeks, chose to have his wedding reception in Toluca that day that we were required to attend.
 
It??™s possible that Illinois State, Drake, Evansville, and Northern Iowa could all go 9-9 in the Valley this year. Out of these four teams which team if any does Bradley stand the best chance against on Thursday night? If I had to rate them in order of wanting to play I would guess

1.) Drake -two close games this year, third times the charm.
2.) UNI - actually have beat this team. UNI still a tough out.
3.) EU - cant loose by 23 + three times can we?
4.) ISU - lets beat the Birds Friday and then stay away from them!

If they all go 9-9, we will play Illinois State as they will be the 7 seed if all 4 of those teams finish 9-9. Of the 4, I think Evansville has the best chance at going 8-10, and if that happens, they will likely be our opponent.

I was really hoping that we would play ISU blue, but I don't see that happening. Here's hoping that we don't have to play ISU red or Evansville......anyone else but them in the first game please!

I stand corrected . Don't like either match-up but would rather send the CU students home then anyone down there. Well maybe ISU red.
