Reynolds: Bradley road woes continue in 68-44 trouncing

EVANSVILLE, Ind. — It is becoming painfully evident that as promising as this season has been so far for Bradley, the Braves have a major Achilles heel.

Most teams aren’t as tough on the road as at home. Bradley takes that tendency to an extreme.

In the Braves’ eight home games — all wins — the margin of victory has been 17.4 points.

In three of their four road losses, including Saturday’s 68-44 rout by Evansville, the margin of defeat has been by more than 20 points. BU is 2-4 on the road and the two wins were over decidedly weak teams in Chicago State and SEMO.
