Late start Wednesday night. Bradley is one of the top 3-4 teams in the league (along with UNI, Loyola and SIU). Gotta hold home court if we want any chance at avoiding Thursday.
Something other than Jager will be drank at West End.

+xI think the Bulldogs will win this one I also think that SIU is better than Bradley gotta slow down Darrell Brown. I haven't looked it up, but I think he's averaged approximately 62 points a game against the Bulldogs.

ESPN+ BPI gives Bradley a 54.2% edge. Game will air on the MVC TV package hence the late start. That's Fox Sports Midwest for most.

Share the ball. Play smart. Keep the tempo up. Keep growing the lead.

Dec 31, 2019, Drake lost a close game to Bradley in Peoria, 80-72. Liam had 21 points before fouling out in the last seconds of the game. Roman fouled out after finishing with 10 points and 12 assists. Darrell Brown finished with 19 and Nate Kennell finished with 16. The big difference, Drake went 5-8 from the line and the Braves 19-22. Bradley is now ranked 17th in the country shooting from three at 38%. However, they are shooting 45.5% for 309th from two. Interestingly, Bradley is first at offensive rebounding against other MVC clubs, and second in offensive efficiency. Drake has given up the fewest offensive rebounds in Valley play, and Bradley is 9th. Don’t expect too many steals, Drake is 9th in the conference and Bradley is 10th. Two road wins in Valley play for the Braves, @Evansville and @ THE Missouri State University.

Drake opens a 1 point favorite.
Last year this was one of the most fun games of the year. The rivalry heated up. Would love to see that again.

Drake up to a 3.5 point favorite.
Last year there were multiple technical fouls issued, including one against Coach Brian Wardle, all against Bradley. I actually had courtside seats for this game and thought they were maybe a little soft but I wasn't complaining. The Bradley boards on the other hand were absolutely livid for days.

D up 10 at half. S/b over 15. Only 11 points in the last 15minutes for B. They always seemed short on the long shots.

Besides the turnovers, great first half. Winning in the paint! Drake out rebounding 20-11!!!!!
Get this, 1-6 from three. Only one to make it from three? Sturtz!!!
Coach said in pregame to Sturtz, "If you don't shoot the open three, you'll be on the bench."
Now if he can only shoot free throws... Kidding!!

This is one of those ones where if roles were reversed I’d be saying we’re lucky to still be in it. Wish they were able to capitalize a little better on Bradley’s two big guys having three fouls.
Nonetheless. Can’t hate too much. Good half

Best effort on the defensive end by far in games I have seen. Really getting through screens, crashing the boards. Thomas has got to take care of the ball better. Interesting lineup of him and Penn together for quite awhile.

Drake has been up numerous times by double digits only to hold on for dear life. Finish this one so you know what it takes!
