This is Butler's time. After last year's near win, I don't see how Brad Stevens, Matt Howard and the Bulldogs will walk away without a title. It's just in the basketball Gods' cards. I really believe that.

In fact, I think they should have Dennis Hopper sit on the bench. Well, maybe a cardboard cutout.

just like your take on duke this year, you are wrong on this one...Butler is a great story, but uconn has it in the bag

I am sure you got my point, so it made enough sense.

Why do people keep saying Butler isn't a cinderella? I mean I know they made it back but as an 8 seed! They're only the 3rd #8 seed ever to go this far...last time was 26 years ago. Haha that's the thing about this team and how incredible it is. To think they made it back is simply incredible but to say that a team that a Horizon League team at 23-9 and 13-5 in conference play isnt cinderella...haa you're nuts

Waaaa Waaaaaaahhhhhhh. Mommy, I like offense. Why can't every team score 120 points like they do in the NBA, and then turn around and wonder what the hell the other end of the floor is for.

I recommend you waste your time watching the NBA instead of this game then. Who knows, if you watch 10 NBA teams tonight, you might find 5 players that care about playing defense as much as the starting 5 for Butler.

Big men need to keep playing well for my UConn boys to pull this one out. If they do, I will be ok with Calhoun going out on top.
