Butler coach called the timeout that Matta didn't

will it lead to a better result?

only one point but doesn't want to wait 31 seconds for the under-4, Butler needed the timeout immediately

Im a genious on the first sentence. But they proved me wrong on the second. Getting it up tempo in lass than 2 minutes and took the lead. they need to continue this pace.

K St getting called on the post defense that Butler isnt getting called for. That has been huge this half in the foul disparity.

Gus Johnson - "Call him Mr. Willie Wonka. His jump shots pour like a chocolate factory"

lol he didn't really say that, but that sounds like something he would say.

As much as you enjoy Clemente and Pullen, I love watching Hayward and Butler. I've loved watching the Bulldogs since the days Darnell Archey was shooting 30-foot rainbows over opponents from the deep corner. That Sweet 16 run in '03 sealed the deal for me.

I just like Butler's old school feel to the game. It's like they've been transported from '50s Indiana and taking on the one-class IHSAA Tournament. Sounds cliche, sure, but cool nonetheless.

I also despite Frank Martin.

Butler is definitely better for the Final Four.

K-State has some great players, though, and they've gained identity the past few days

I understand why you want to watch Butler. I just didnt know what the hatred for K St was. Thats all.

Also, I just realized that 30-foot rainbows from the deep corners are impossible:D

I do have to give Clemente his due. I think he's the most offensively talented player in the Big 12. He's a scoring machine when he wants to be. He did it at Miami against the ACC and he's doing it now.

the K St guards have just been off all game. It will be why they lose.
