Bradley is the only one of two schools left in the NCAA Division I Men’s Tournament that doesn’t have a football program, so interest in the Braves is high.
About 50 Bradley fans endured a 13-hour bus trip and cold temperatures to watch the Braves upset Maryland, 3-2, Saturday night with a miracle comeback.
By Monday afternoon, three buses had been filled to take fans to Sunday’s quarterfinal game at Ohio State.
The Bradley athletic department, in partnership with the Braves Club booster organization, has made arrangements for three bus trip options — including an overnight trip — to allow fans to make the trip to Columbus.
