of course... if Butler wins......

Go Bulldogs! 1 point game with a minute to go.

something tells me that burning their last 2 timeouts trying to inbound the ball could come back and bite Butler in the butt.

Butler deserves a top 25 spot after this week, whether they win or not.

I doubt they will- thought if they could keep it to a 7 pt margin- and then win vs Memphis/LSU it might be possible.

Rooting for Butler and love how they play, but shocked if top 25 (unless they beat Ok. St.). They are #90 in Sagarin, 70 in kenpom, and #56 in teamrankings.com (yes #15 RPI or so).

BTW, now down 1 to OK St. so ignore all above if they win.

How are you going to lose the game on 2 missed FT's?

Big East extremely unlucky this year. Have to win that.

Good game bulldogs.

Butler just falls short by 2. Misses 2 FT with 6 seconds to go. great effort for Butler. Next up for them is loser of Memphis/LSU.

Have to at least tie and make 1 of those…wow. Good game guys, you hung tough. At some point though we need a major win. We have 0. VCU doesn't count.

VCU to real basketball people is a major win.

Great effort by Butler - game was winnable which makes it an even more difficult pill to swallow.
