SFP, in 8 of the last ten years, Butler has had at least 20 wins, getting 26 or more seven of those times.

So they, too, have been consistently good over the last ten years.

Butler's style is too foul on every possession and just assume that the refs aren't going to call 45 fouls in a game.


They also flop so much it would make Vlade Divac blush.

But they are a mid-major, so they don't count.

Or something along those lines.

ETA: nailed it.

do you honestly think butler's 20+ wins in the dicksuckers annonymous conference mean the same if that had been done in the big east, SEC, or even pac10?

I thought they got away with a bunch of fouls in first half

I'd say uconn should try to run more but butler is a damn good transition d team

Hell there help defense has been great

ur not serious are you?

NBA players are a LOT better and have a LOT more time spent working on gameplanning and running plays. everything you coach in the NBA is offense and defense, in college you still have to coach fundamentals to half the team

Yes, it means exactly the same. That's obviously what I think.

Give me a break. Obviously they aren't playing the same level of competition game in and game out, season by season like UConn is, like I said. However, they have proven over the years that they can win in the tournament against the big boys. What would you like them to do? Go independent and schedule all BCS schools?

Last year, they probably were a top 8 team in the country. They lost like 4 games all year, and then beat some very good teams in the tournament to prove their worth. Under your format, they wouldn't have even had a chance.

When one team only have 6 fg's made for a HALF that's BAD. The defense isn't all that good.lol.

Any time you go flying like you just got shot from any kind of a bump, it's a flop, even if it is a legitimate offensive foul.

I have never once seen someone legitimately fall over like that in any game that wasn't rewarding flopping.
