The BUTLER Did It … The Butler Bulldogs Beat Florida 74-71 in OT IN NCAA Basketball … to the Final Four, Again (UPDATE: UCONN In)

THE BUTLER DID IT!!!

In what was truly a fantastic game that would see the winner go to the FINAL FOUR … The #8 seeded Butler Bulldogs have done it again and are headed back to the NCAA Basketball Final Four. Butler defeated #2 seed Florida Gators 74-71 in OT.  Behind the big “Mack” attack from guard Shelvin Mack and the gritty play of forward Matt Howard.

Butler was last years “Hoosiers” darling that every one who was not a Duke fan was pulling for. who would have thought of last years Final Four teams, Butler, Duke, West Virginia & Michigan St, that it would be Butler who was the only one to return?

One team is in and now we await the Arizona – UCONN match up.

UPDATE I: The Silence of the Lambs … UCONN … U BET!

Add another to the Final Four. The UCONN Huskies have punched their ticket to the Fibal Four with a 65-63 victory of the Arizona Wildcats. Kemba Walker poured in 20 and Jeremy Lamb added 19 as the Huskies of the University of Connecticut knocked out Arizona. After UCONN won 5 straight and won the Big East Tournament, the boys from Storrs, CT have been on a mission.
