I did an audit on the schedule list I used and I counted the Loyola game over UNCW as a win... should have been a push

The corrected year-to-date number is 72-47...

UIC is getting a beat down from their crosstown rival. UIC is playing without Tarkus Ferguson but still... Steve McClain is a bad coach. That team is playing way below their abilities. Credit to Loyola though.

Bradley has size and plays excellent defense.  We are in a big boys league gents!!!

0.500 in the league is the likely outcome, anything better is overachieving.

I have no doubt our athleticism and defense will keep us in games, but our half court offense needs significant improvement.  Are we going to suffer from 3-point range all season?  I had hopes that Burton + Golder would get us Peters type % from deep.

For how nice Loyola's Arena is, they sure pulled a bone-head move by locating their media table in front of the student seating area.

That or they have one of college basketballs most annoying (non-stop yelling) fans.  It's really hard to listen to their audio because the prepubescent moron is non-stop yelling.

This is their third game I've watched on replay while working out and man alive he needs to shut it!!!

Rant over....for now.

talksalot

VALP0 RPI RISES TO 46...up 15 points in one day !! 
5 minutes later... #47...still we are one of the Top 50 teams that folks want to play, right?

... If Utah State can hang one on BYU that would help a lot!  They are up 2 with 12 to play.... 5:00 to play, down 6....  Come on Aggies!    UCR is being dismantled by Grand Canyon; Santa Clara is up big on winless Pine Bluff.

I would rather not face a Purdue team hoping to make them lose twice in a row at home.

A wish. Not a prediction. One result does not determine the result for another opponent on another day.

Starting at 80-50

Sunday, December 03, 2017   Samford loses to Jacksonville State 89-58 - LOSS   
Sunday, December 03, 2017   SIU-Edwardsville loses to Fort Wayne  86-71 - LOSS

causing our RPI to go up to 53

Sunday, December 03, 2017   Bradley   San Diego State   5   Aztecs #38, favored by 15... tipping off

Sunday, December 03, 2017   Northwestern loses at  Purdue 74-69...Haarms and Haams too muuch too haandle.

talksalot

well, so much for THAT hope...

BRADLEY  3   SAN DIEGO STATE 20    1st  11:33
BRADLEY  21  SAN DIEGO STATE 37   1st    1:11

Looking ahead to tomorrow night... only one opponent game, and it the second time this season for this home-n-home.

Monday December 4, 2017   Missouri State at North Dakota State.  MoSt favored by 1.5 even on the road.

Most RPI is 61, record is 6-2, NDSU RPI is 73, record is 3-4; NDSU won the first match on 11/17 57-54; lost to Mississippi State and Southern Cal, their SOS is 36.

talksalot

Starting tonight, 81-53   on the MoSt game... and we have a Bears victory on the road, 71-58, Alize Johnson with 21 and 10.

the only other fun game to watch tonight would be to see if the Gators can knock off the undefeated 'Noles... even game late in the first half right now.

82-53 looking to Tuesday's matchups...doesn't look to promising after Evansville...although the falcons are favored by 3.5.  ...

Tuesday, December 05, 2017   Ball State   Notre Dame, Irish favored by 18
Tuesday, December 05, 2017   Evansville   Bowling Green
Tuesday, December 05, 2017   Samford   Memphis, Tigers favored by 9
Tuesday, December 05, 2017   UC Riverside   Pepperdine  Wave favored by 3.5

Ball State up 19-15  8:11 to play first half...game on ESPN3; Kiapway hurt for Ball State ... looked like a hyperextended knee... have to watch that.

Irish we knew who they were playing.

Ball State just can't put Notre Dame away. At one point the Cardinals we're up by 9 and other various totals but ND has come back each time. Irish down 2 under 4 minutes to go.

I sure am glad we have that easy game with Ball St between the hard ones at Purdue and Northwestern!  ;D

Wow! BSU pulls out 3 point win at South Bend.

Ball State looked good. That whole team was playing out of its mind, specifically Tayler Persons who had 24 with the gaming winning shot. They looked good.

A nice little boost to the SOS for us. It would be a really nice win if we could steal one in Muncie against a good ball state squad.

Ball State pulls the 80-77 win
Evansville with a 91-76 win on the road at Bowling Green

Ball State pulls the 80-77 win over Our Lady of South Bend
Evansville with a 91-76 win on the road at Bowling Green

#253 Samford was up 64-62 with 15 seconds left, with a chance at their first Road win of the year, gave up layup, and dribbled the inbounds pass of their own foot.  Giving the tigers the ball, down 3 with 9.2 on the clock.  Give up an offensive rebound and foul on the put-back with 2.5 to go... to lose it 65-64

Before the Samford game went final, VU was RPI 55 and SOS 274.
