LeonardoBig game for Butler before they host Ohio State
7 PM on ESPN from MSG -
HuskersI'll take my Hoya's in a close one. 67-63.
-
HuskersG'Town up 49-35 early in 2nd half. The Hoyas size is beginning to be to much for the Bulldogs.
-
ironman02Greg Monroe was dominant for the Hoyas...24 points and 14 rebounds with less than a minute left.
Hoyas should hang on to win but they haven't really closed Butler out very well. -
HuskersNo they didn't close out Butler well tonight. I'll take the win though.
-
reclegend22Does anyone else think Bob Knight could care less if John Saunders just disappeared? Random thought.
And I am so tired of the Larry Bird comparisons to every solid tall white guy who shows signs of being able to shoot and pass (e.g. Hayward).
Come on, Dick.
Although, I do happen to see traces in Kyle Singler .... j/k
I am, however, beginning to rethink Butler as a Final Four pick. I think the Bulldogs are just struggling to put it all together here early, and that's they'll be just fine. But a Final Four team they are not. I just don't see the power present there that's needed to make such a run. -

Yep, a win is a win. The Hoyas have a solid basketball team.Huskers wrote: No they didn't close out Butler well tonight. I'll take the win though.
rec,
I know I wish John Saunders would disappear. I'd like to see Knight speak his mind to him. -
reclegend22^^ Me, too.

friendfromlowryIt'd be nice to see Butler drop out of the top 25. Their out-of-conference play has been anything but stellar, at 6-3. We'll see how they do against OSU and Xavier, but with three losses already before entering Horizon League play, they don't belong with the big boys this year.
