Going to be a very tough game tonight on a very solid opponents court. Cannot afford to get into the same jam to start the game like what happened against Kent St. They will have to be the aggressors early and often. If the guys can escape with a W tonight I really think they will win the whole thing.

Let's hope they come out wanting to win this thing. Very excited to see how this game pans out. Bradley has the advantage of having almost a week to spread the word about the game. Unforutantely if we win we'll be stuck in another 2-day notice situation, but that's a good problem to have!

A win tonight would be great, I really would like some more home games this year and to win a championship to pick up some momentum going into next year.
Plus I want OU to win to shut up those over confident Bradley fans from their board!
I like that they are over confident and think they can walk all over us, now we can walk in there and catch them off gaurd. (But I imagine their team is a bit less cocky then their fans)

Going to be a very tough win, but a win that we can get for sure. Hopefully they will come out with their A game. Hopefully they realize that playing in a postseason tournament is something to be happy about. I expect a win from us tonight.
I don't think the Bradley fans are too confident. Most of them realize that we are a tough opponent, but its their 2-3 fans that think we are a pushover, and give us no shot at all.

I finally got a chance to read through the posts on the Bradley fan board, and I'm impressed with most of their fans (including the articulate ones who have posted here on this forum). The few Bradley fans there who are predicting a large margin of victory are doing so as a result of not having heard of Oakland and (rightfully) not respecting the Summit League. Pretty understandable.
A school like Oakland still has to earn respect at the D1 level, and a convincing win tonight would be a good step in that direction.

Looking forward to this game tonight. I am expecting a close physical game and I believe the key to the game will be coming out to a fast start to take the BU crowd out of the game similar to what we did against SDSU in the tournament. I am keeping my fingers crossed hoping for a home game for my birthday on wednesday.
