I'm still in awe of Butler's run - a mid-major eliminating a #1 seed, a #2 seed, and a bracket champ on their way to the final.

1. They certainly played great D against Michigan St
However Duke can shoot accurately from the perimeter so that spreads out the defense. I'm sure home court advantage will help them out as well.

4. Well, that, and they knocked UConn (men) out of the tournament two years in a row
just when the men's team was trying to establish itself -- once on a last-second shot just like the one they used to beat Kentucky in the next round. :grr:

And it's not "perceived" politics: the needlenosed piece of crap used to hold fundraisers for ex-Sen. Liddy Dole (R-Reason Husband Needs Viagra). :banghead:
