Butler reminds me of Florida the year they got to the Final as a 5 seed.

They played like ass. Syracuse choked as hard as a team can choke. Butler's one chance to win the game was supposed to be their three-point shooting, and they shot 6-for-24 and still won.

Florida won their first round game that year at the buzzer. Doesn't always have to be pretty.

It's not about pretty or ugly. Syracuse literally gave away the game. Murray State has to be kicking themselves right now.

I wouldn't say Butler wanted it more than Syracuse, I would say they outplayed them. As for their supposed 3pt shooting advantage... that's not true. They are entirely average at it (147th in the nation.) They are best at controlling tempo, being efficient on both offense and defense, and getting to the line and converting more than their opponent- which is exactly what they did tonight. I'm a Syracuse fan because of family and friends but tonight I was very impressed with Butler.

The point is against that zone, three-point shooting was supposed to be their only chance. They bricked up a new building, Syracuse led by four with the ball late, and Butler still won despite missing three free throws in the last 30 seconds.

Coach Pants 03-25-2010 09:50 PM

Cornell is too white.

Yeah unless you live in Ocala,FL where CBS insists on showing the Cornell/KY free throw contest rather than a double OT game.

How many steps is Prince allowed to take on his drive? And I'm never betting another O/U as long as I live. Those shits have bankrupted me.
