Butler - Nova down to the wire

[keefe]

Butler just hit a 2 to tie with 21 ticks left. What a great game.

Like I said in the Game Thread when Nova and a use were playing (and Nova had an early lead), Nova = overrated. And it's still the Butler way...

Maybe, but Nova looks pretty good.  I think those predicting we were going 13-3 and just stroll into some of these away venues are going to be sadly mistaken.

Hard for me to see us winning at Butler, Nova, Creighton, Xavier, G'Town.  We might pick up one, maybe two, but they are going to be really tough games.

I fear you are correct, Jamie.

Is Nova's PG wearing a turtleneck?

I guess the numbers are off, I think a bunch of folks predicting 15-3 (not 13-3) earlier in the year....even with the slide of late, the predictions of 13-5 and 12-6 seem optimistic, but maybe we find our stride....they will not be easy to be sure.

I think it's more that Butler was underrated......they are pretty damn good...especially at home.

I think teams are going to beat each other up pretty good this year....I don't see alot of seperation between the top 5 or 6 teams

[keefe]

Wow. Nova's up one but turns it over with 13 to play. Exciting stuff.

Nova missed 2 free thows and then turned it over............looks like they still might hold on.....Butler had chances
