HUGE back-to-back threes! Gus Johnson should call every championship sporting event from now until he dies! Seriously, CBS needs to give him the play-by-play duties next weekend in Houston.

Man I am jealous of Florida and Kansas playing mid-majors to get to the final four, while they gave us a traditional powers like Kentucky, Syracuse, and North Carolina in our bracket smh. What a great reward of being a #1 overall seed.

If I win the Powerball tonight I'm hiring Gus Johnson to follow me around and do play-by-play of my life.

Butler gives them the chance to run the clock down to zero again, but this time the difference is a miss and Florida loses. Bet they don't wait until 5 sec to go for the basket. A foul by Butler with about 12 sec left would be good!

Good thing Butler has a young coach. A older coach would have a heart attach from this tourney.

Butler is already completely superior to Gonzaga...Zags make the elite 8 once in a while and people think they're amazing

NCAA got what they wanted.....


They have given Butler every single advantage they could and handed them two games(Pitt and Florida)

Butler will get beat by 30 or 40 by Kansas

Atleast we made it farther than Ohio State

Fixed.

Gonzaga can't touch Butler. Can't believe how many close games that team wins.

And Kansas could go to the title game without beating anyone above an 8 seed. Wow.
