Butler did it: The Bulldogs knocked off Michigan State to earn a berth in the title game Monday.
Now the only question is whether their opponent will be West Virginia or Duke. UPDATE: Duke won and will face Butler in the final game.

Looks like it’s going to be Duke.

who cares?
redc1c4 (fb8750) — 4/3/2010 @ 10:39 pmThis is supposed to be March madness. What are we doing in April?

Seriously, while Butler is awesome, they face a powerful Duke team that can simply kill you… underneath, from outside, rebounding, they have it all. That said, it should be a good game…not the runaway Duke had coming in.
Duke DeLand (569339) — 4/4/2010 @ 6:59 amOf course it was going to be Duke. President Obama picked West Virginia to win–and he never picks a winner.
Louise B (20a3bf) — 4/4/2010 @ 7:41 amDuke will win big over Butler.

I wonder what happened to the Badger team that beat Duke early in the season. True, it was in Madison, but…

JD (e190da) — 4/4/2010 @ 8:48 pmAnd, I do not think it would be hyperbole to state that should Butler win tomorrow night, it would be one of, if not the most incredible stories in the history of this tournament, and would make the movie Hoosiers pale in comparison.
JD (e190da) — 4/4/2010 @ 9:06 pmButler University lives and breathes basketball in the very best sense and spirit of the game. It’s no exaggeration to note that any object around the small, picturesque, Midwestern campus (or Indianapolis for that matter) over 20 feet high has a backboard and basket affixed to it. You could literally shoot hoops walking across town. If Butler wins, the title will be hard earned, well honored and in good hands. If they fall short, they can hold their heads high playing with and as the best. But in the interest of full disclosure, this posting is biased as this writer earned a MS degree at Butler several decades ago. Go Bulldogs!
DCSCA (9d1bb3) — 4/5/2010 @ 5:48 pmThat is an outright exaggeration, IMP. It is a lie as well. And I call BS on yet another fanciful claim of yours. That is about 50 of said claims so far.
