Tues 11/19 BE Game Thread (3 Games).

Game is being called tight which favors Butler. Other than shooting threes, I'm not sure if Butler is going to be all that great when it's conference time.

[TheHall]

Say whatever you want about BU but they're making Vandy look like an over-matched mid-major. 20 point swing in this game BU up 53-41 12 to go.

If Butler is the 8th or 9th best team in this conference there shouldn't be much of an issue getting 6 in.

Yup.

No doubt, but I don't know if Vandy is much better than that anyway. Last year, Vandy was a bad team, but they were young. A year of seasoning should help, but they still probably won't be good (just not bad). Butler is taking them out like they should.

I considered that but I still find it hard not be impressed with the crisp domination by BU. It's like a good scrimmage.

I'm beginning to believe the reports of Butler's demise have been greatly exaggerated. Knock on wood.

[TheHall]

#6 Duke only up 2 at home against E. Carolina 66-64. under 6 to go.

[Jet915]

Butler letting the lead slip again, only up 6 now w/5 min.

Come on, Butler, don't let Vandy grab this game back late like Xavier did last year...

And The Hall, I agree; it has been enjoyable to watch their beautiful execution. Against better defensive teams (with tape from these earlier games), though, I think their deficiencies will begin to show.
