Clearly you missed that "if you let us" part, and that second part where I mentioned that USA didn't defend the 3 point line. Go check out what we did non-conference and in the Great Alaska Shootout....our conference opponents who know how we play are far more effective at shutting down our...

We don't turn the ball over, we shoot lights out (yes, we can shoot like that two games in a row, if you let us), and we play tough defense. We play at a very slow pace, and force you to defend for 35 seconds, every time up the floor. South Alabama handed us that game when they decided to stop...

Again, we can't control who's in and who's out after we've already played. TTU, OSU, SIU, and Bradley are normally tourney-bound teams. Florida State and Va Tech aren't world beaters but they're generally middle-of-the-pack teams. This year, they're not. Smaller schools like Butler just want...

Like I said, a FEW of the comments prompted my response. Just wanted to make sure the facts were out there before people started jumping to conclusions. Hopefully we see you guys in the second round. You can't take any opponent for granted in the tourney (especially as a 7 seed), but that...

Greetings, Vol Nation. I come in peace. I'm a Butler grad, but my old man is a UT grad, so there's always a soft spot in my heart for the Vols. I'm surprised at a few of the comments on this thread inferring that Butler is somehow not as good a team this year. Here are some facts: Last...
