PEORIA — Where Keith Fisher III comes from, the Southern Cal-UCLA rivalry is the biggest thing around.
"I'm not new to the whole huge rivalry thing and how much that means both to fans and their cities and everything," said Fisher, who grew up in Los Angeles.
Now, Illinois State's junior forward gets to really experience another rivalry.
ISU takes the short drive west on Interstate 74 to face Bradley at 7 p.m. Wednesday in a Missouri Valley Conference game at Carver Arena.
This might not be the most hospitable place for the Redbirds (6-12 overall, 1-5 MVC) to try and get their first road victory of the season and break their five-game losing streak.
