So does anybody else

Think UW will make the Final Four? I think they do which will really suck. They got a pretty favorable draw now IMO.

Butler has been a favorite team of mine since there sweet 16 year when they played Florida(I hated the gators then) so I have loved seeing them succeed lately and would never count them out. That said, yes I think Wisco has a VERY good shot to make the final 4 and probably the best out of the 4 in that region.

I think Butler will give them more trouble than they might expect. The Bulldogs don't have a problem with slow-down games and are really tested. If they win that, I think they'd find a way to decimate BYU, as Wisconsin usually gives fits to teams that want to run, but I think they'd lose to Florida. Billy Donovan knows he doesn't have the dominant offense he had during their title years, and has done a great job of keeping the team efficient while playing slower than they've played in the past decade. Florida is better defensively than Wisconsin, and not far behind them offensively. If the Gators get by BYU, I expect them to make the Final Four, and would definitely make them a clear favorite over Bucky.

I have never cared for their program and do not care for Bo Ryan. But you cannot argue about the program's success. Bo gets the job done, and he has done so again this year.

I do recall that Bo was a candidate for the MU job when we hired Crean, and I believe that he may have been a candidate before then. Wonder what would have transpired if MU had made his decision.

Having said that, I will continue to always root for the Warriors to whip Wisky's ass--forever.

I think you mean when we hired Deane.  Cords had Crean already lined up when he fired Deane, with the interviews taking place while Michigan State was in Milwaukee for the first two rounds of the 1999 tournament.

50/50 Odds they make the final four.  They sure lucked out once again, with their draw.  I'd love to be in their position.
