So far in the NCAA tournament......all of Butler's opponents have been held under 60 points. Now, K-State has to do what hasn't yet been done just to get to overtime.

Agreed. He is so bad. They need to pair him up with Bobby Knight so they can take turns seeing who can point out the more obvious observation in a totally bland way while we all watch on mute (with the Gus Johnson soundboard of course).

They could be in the championship game. I think MSU or UT will be hard pressed to beat them in Indy.

Did you mean George Mason? Glen Mason was the Minnesota Golden Gophers football coach several years ago. LOL

Butler's coach looks like he is 15 years old.

That place is going to be SOOOO full of Hoosiers cheering on Butler. Purdue, ND, Indiana, Butler, Indiana St, Ball St, etc fans will all be cheering for Butler. When the FF is in Indy a lot of casual basketball fans in the state go regardless. Now they have a serious rooting interest. Indy is gonna be buzzing with Butler fever for the next week. I wouldnt be surprised if it was 65% pro Butler in LOS.

Butler is more established to George Mason and I don't think its really comparable.

Butler has been somewhat consistent with their good play, but this year they are just turning it up a notch.
