Redbirds v Bradley 1/20 8:00 PM Marquee (ESPN3)

[ISU86]

Loyola-Chicago -13 | 130 1/2 at Valparaiso
Bradley -7 | 138 1/2 at Illinois State

Interesting opening line to say the least.

I think if the Birds can stay within 25 points it'll be a good step in a positive direction. My prediction:

Bradley 84
ISU 53

-7? Did they leave a digit off? Was it supposed to be 17. It sucks, unless we have a really night hitting jump shots and Bradley is off we have no chance. BU isn’t even really that good , I mean they still haven’t finished in the top 3 since Molinari. But they are light years ahead of us

I’ll be following the game trying my best to keep the anger and frustration in check.

It’s a rivalry (or at least is used to be), so it may be closer than the talent on the floor suggests (coaching especially included).
That said, I don’t want to hear any postgame crap about a “moral victory” if we keep it within the spread. That shit nauseates me.

I promise not to proclaim moral victories only if by chance we beat Bradley you promise to enjoy the moment.

That said ... I think this is a bad match up and think we will lose by double digits.

No confetti, no fans could mean different feel for Illinois State-Bradley rivalry

The confetti won't be flying at Redbird Arena. Will the intensity of the Bradley-Illinois State rivalry be the same without fans in the stands?

Fair enough, although any additional wins means my dream of a new coach is kicked further down the road

This might be the worst loss of the season and DM still looking comfortable and nothing to see here attitude

Line now to Bradley -9... If I was a betting man.....

 

[WoodlandWarrior]

Surely the new AD is observing the current state of affairs of the basketball program. Or receiving correspondence on the subject. Or reading this forum.

 

[cubird]

AD name is not surely

 

[JHBird]

AD name is not surely

ease up on

AD name is not surely

Plus, he's missing a comma

"Shirley, the new AD ... etc"

Surely, you jest.

 

[Redbird82]

Surely, if this the discussion the day of an ISU-Bradley game how far interest has fallen....

“You can call me Ray, or you can call me Jay, but you doesn’t have to call me Johnson”

That's what bothers me the most. He throws his players under the bus when everything about the program is his fault. He does not take responsibility. Does he even recognize it if is he just z huge narcissist.

Would love for this to be the night things start coming together for the Redbirds. Give 'em hell guys!
