Or they could just stop them and win the game. I dont' think u foul in that situation, ever.

Edit: Guess I was wrong.

They are a lucky team

Hardworking and I guess you get rewarded for that or something

Butler moves on 60-58

after review, it does count

They'll beat Pitt, I think.

Howard and Smith are going to be tough for Pitt to handle.

And Butler makes its share of three-pointers.

Fuck Butler. Seriously, if im gonna lose a game like that, I want it to be a real play and a skill shot. That was the luckiest buzzer beater I think Ive ever seen lol.

The bounce was lucky, but Howard did what you're suppose to do in that situation, crash the offensive glass. Great play by him.

Jay Bilas with a good point. ODU and Butler should be playing Tennessee and Michigan. Its better for the game to have mid-majors playing majors. Especially when the seeds wouldnt have even changed.

Yes, Howard is a tough kid. I like his game. But that guy was about to travel, threw the ball in the air, and the deflection came right to Howard with 1 second left. That whole sequence was just luck lol

Hopefully you didn't have ODU going past the next round? lol

Same here. Louisville doesnt bother me but PSU blowing the nice early lead does. We need a big dose of Taylor Battle in the 2nd half.

Butler, after having bad possessions with a 4 and 2 point lead on their next to last and 2nd to last possessions, lucked out on the last possession, even though they waited too long to start the last play. I hate it when they start with 8 sec left rather than 12 - it just doesn't give enough time for the rebound basket. Butler messed up at the end of the first half also, failing to take a shot with 42-47 sec left so they could get another possession at the end of the half.

Now that's a BOLD prediction lol. I wasn't buying it, I went with Butler because they are well coached and they have almost everyone back from last year's final run. You can't put a price on experience like that.
