Butler could be playing tonight without center Matt Howard who has a mild concussion. Trainer: Howard has 'mildest of mild' concussion - College Basketball - Rivals.com I think he'll play. Either way, Butler's getting 7.5 points in Vegas right now. That's alot of points. I'm no NCAA expert (look at my stinkin' bracket if you don't believe me), but I'd say that Coach K and Duke's bench will prove to be too much for the overachieving Butler Bulldogs. I say Duke covers.
:hihi: nice one. I will not pull for Butler because the last time i pulled for a Cinderella in the final 4 they lost, and Duke was in that Final 4. RIP Hank Gathers.
If Duke plays like they did against WVU, they can't be beat. The thing about Butler is that they force you into uncomfortable positions and make you make mistakes. Duke is not known as a team that makes lots of mistakes so the only way Duke loses is if they beat themselves. I think they win but I don't know if they cover.
I hate Duke, and in most circumstances, would never pull for them elitist pricks. However, I got them in our office pool. Duke wins, I win. Duke looses, I guy I don't want to lose to wins.
if Duke wins tonight, I win the bracket if Duke loses tonight, my cousin-in-law wins the bracket. I don't want to lose to that particular cousin-in-law.
