They earned the attention. Glad to see SH getting some love. Hopefully, the Pirates and the Friars will be getting noticed in the polls today!

Happy for my Dawgs, but they still have a lot of work to do before they are a "great" team. Really worried about rebounding in particular. Gonna be a huge issue for this team in conference.

Congrats! Well deserved! You guys already have Ws over 2 of my least favorite teams (IU and UC).

I don't know if they're a great team, but they play great D, have great ball movement, and have a great coach. Many thought they wouldn't be able to replace Stephens. Well, they may just have some that.

Butler's win over Indiana Saturday was the most-watched Big Ten Network non-conference basketball game ever -->

Interesting to me that three of the top five had both teams from Indiana (Indiana vs. Butler (2016), Indiana at Fort Wayne (2016), Purdue vs. Butler (2015)), and a fourth had one team from Indiana (Purdue vs. Villanova (2016)). Most interesting is that the top three featured teams from the Big East.

Nice to see Stevens there tonight ... Butler is a class program.
