Could Buter Play For The National Title?

[UNT90]

Mich St. and Tenn are 5 and 6 seeds, respectively. Very doable. The final four is in Butler's home town, so imagine how stoked that community will be (and how PISSED IU alum are right now).

Two home games for Butler until they win the national title?

[CMJ]

I think it's possible. But I wouldn't bet on them to win it all. They'll have a great shot to win their Final Four game, but not sure about them taking out WVU/Duke/Kentucky(or Baylor). I would love to see it occur tho.

I would expect them to beat Michigan State or Tennessee. Kentucky is a whole other ballgame, and I just don't see it. But then again, I don't think there is a whole lot that happened this tournament that I actually expected to see.

[DeepGreen]

Yes they can.

[NT03]

Give me Butler over WVU. Other than that I wouldn't bet on them to win it all. I think they can get past both Tenn & MSU

Butler will be playing in front of a home crowd.

The ultimate b-ball underdog movie....Hoosiers.....that final game in the movie, is played at Butler's colesium (which they still use). Omen?

Who is Buter?

[bstnsportsfan3]

Can They? Yes

Will They? who knows

I wouldn't be surprised if they did, but I never expect anyone to beat Izzo in the tournament.

I read that. He weighs 99 lbs now.

I go with Butler or a very strong Baylor team that is peaking at the right time. On the other hand, WV is looking damn tough at the moment.

[UNT90]

At one point about 2 minutes into the 2nd half, W. Virginia had made one 2 point basket the entire game AND LED BY10!!!! 10-17 3 point shooting in the 1st half. Just more weirdness from a strange tournament.

One would hope that Butler fans would have a lot of support since they are in town. BUT I thought for SURE with Baylor fans out numbering Duke fans 10-1, in their own backyard, they would have made today's game a home game for their team, but goodness those fans were quiet.

[UNT90]

I think this final 4 sets up quite nicely for ButLer. I would give them a 35% chance of winning it all.

[foutsrouts]

I think Buter can do it. It won't be against Balor now though. My money is on Buter over Duk in the final. Buter just has too much going for them, and Duk got lucky against Balor. Interesting Final 4.

Uh, sorry to be the spelling police, but there's 2 T's in butter, and a 'C' in duck... and yes, my money is also on butter over duck in the final.
