  That looked like a foul on the wrist, but that was a terrible offensive possession by Michigan State.

  52-49 Butler with 6 seconds left.

  I don't think it was close to being a shot attempt.

  Man I know Izzo been to 6 final fours and won one, but how many more times will he fall short?

  Are you serious? He loses his best player and starting PG in the second round and still comes within a possession of playing for the national championship.

  True you got a point. I wasn't trying to bash him. Just a general question.

  This has certainly given Butler a lot of exposure. I can just see the alumni contributions flooding in. And they will get a lot more quality applications from prospective students for next year.

  I am not sold on 1 year, I'm guessing this coach will be gone within a few years.

  Congrats to Butler. It's not always pretty, but I think they'll have a shot monday night because of their defense. Duke is going to be tough for anyone to beat, but there won't be a team with the crowd behind them like Butler will have. Should be a great atmosphere.

  Some of the guys that Izzo was forced to play are players I have never heard of or seen before.
