Notre Dame with 2 very costly turnovers late. 2 very simple mistakes, not really even forced. Butler with a shot to win, shot clock off and tied at 55.

More time on the clock? He surely double dribbled before it go to 2.0. Should be like 3.4.

Butler royally screwed. There should've been like 3.5 seconds left before that shot and like .9 left after. Should be like 2.4.

Should be an offensive foul on Dunham for kicking.

Not how it works. You don't get to arbitrarily pick when to use Tyne whistle and when to use the violation. The ref didn't grant the double dribble right away. Doesn't mean a team is screwed. Just means the ref is slow

The whistle blew on time though. The clock ran and extra almost 2 seconds on the double dribble.

Butler is the absolute best at almost winning.

Pretty crazy that Mike Brey still coached the game tonight after his mother passed away this morning.

Yea died of a heart attack. If it was a terminal illness maybe not such a big deal since the mourning process is a long played out one. Maybe the family told him to stay.

No secret that over the years I have hated Wisconsin. But last year and this year I have thoroughly enjoyed their brand of basketball. Really hoping they can win it all. Probably some bias with Nigel Hayes and Vitto Brown, but I also love Frank Kaminsly and Bronson Koenig, and we all know I hated Frank as a freshman/sophomore lol

Barkley in pregame: "this is going to come down to points"

Did anyone hear the announcer during the ND game call them "the hottest team in the tournament?" It made me chuckle.

Anyway, looking forward to WVU/MD, KU/WSU, LOU/UNI, MSU/UVA and IOWA/GON today. I don't see the Duke or Wisky games being ultra close and I think UD's magic runs out.

Usually the team that scores the most points wins the game.

I'll be officially D-O-N-E if Virginia loses....Had Nova winning it all in one bracket, and UVA losing to UK in the other.

I'd rather watch two grown men arm wrestle than watch Michigan State play basketball. They are the fucking worst. Tom Izzo deserves the Laziest Coach in America award for only playing well in March every year. It's not a "great turnaround" when your team is consistently terrible until this time of the year every season. It's just mediocrity.
