This is pretty disgusting the display Johnson and Reggie Miller are putting on

They are openly routing for Butler and not even trying to hide it

Once again a team misses the chance for the 2 for 1 as the let the 45, 40, and 35 sec mark pass without shooting!

This is Gus Johnson's last game of the tournament (sadly), so clearly the Law of Gus is in full effect!

Miller has been awful announcing

I'd give Gus a better analyst next year

even Elmore is kind of old and boring

Not to jinx the rest of this tournament, but (dumb plays and OSU loss notwithstanding) this is probably the most exciting one (in terms of games going down to the wire) I can remember since 1997.

The late games of the first day and the early games last night are the only 2 sessions that haven't had at least 1 buzzer beater type scenario that I can remember. Hope Butler can pull this one out.

What's with these teams all thinking they have to win the game on a TJ Sorrentine? I want Butler to win this game, but dribble the ball toward the fucking rim before the two-second mark. My God. This just makes me go crazy.

Let's Go, Bulldogs. Do this.

Very patient play by Howard when he got the loose ball in good position!
