Prediction: Final score of the UW-Butler Game, 11- 8

[JTBMU7]

I think this is on pace for a 40 pt game...

[brewcity77]

I'll take the under.

[MU B2002]

A game that feature gatorade wisconsin player of the year "josh gossen"? 

[MUEng92]

I swear Brad Stevens looks younger each time I see him.


OT of my own post, why would an itouch autocorrect the word him with Jim?  That isn't his name.

I swear Brad Stevens looks younger each time I see him.

I was just going to say the same thing. He actually looks younger than his own players.

D*ck answer by Bo coming out of half time...
accused the reporter of asking an unfair question when asked about upping their (lackluster) intensity.
seemed pretty accurate question to me.

[79Warrior]

NOT

[NersEllenson]

17 straight missed shots until Carrot top scores..wow...this is entertaining...simply to watch UW get punked by an 8 seed.  I suspect we will see less troll activity here over the next week...

Or more.

Not only cause they're playing UW tonight, but I cheered for them the whole tourney last year. I mean what's there to hate about them? They play hard, great defense, are athletic, very well coached, disciplined, and can shoot it well.

[NersEllenson]

Or more.

I doubt it...you cannot start talking trash when you are a 4 seed and get absolutely dismantled by an 8 seed in the Round of 16.  I actually feel for the cool/reasonable WI fans as this is reminding me of the beatdown Kansas put on MU in the Final Four.  Game not over yet...but it seems there is NO way WI will come back to win...seems to be a more a question of how bad will this loss be?

I guess I meant the true  Bucky trolls--stealthily trashing MU.

That's a good program there.  Hinckley Fieldhouse is a great spot too.  Lots to like.

I hope Brad Stevens builds something there.

[MUEng92]

Is Reggie Miller trying to imply that Bo Ryan is being outcoached? Blasphemy I say!

i would say it's built.

Already got my first response on FB from a Badger fan...I said "Let's go Butler!" and all he had was "can't wait for the golden eagles to go down". I really hope we can beat UNC and have that to shove down their throats. All the kenpom ratings in the world mean nothing when you choke to an 8-seed.

[NersEllenson]

The commentary of Elmore and Reggie Miller is just hilarious...:

Miller:  Remember this is a Wisconsin team that lost to Penn State 36-33

Elmore:  Yeah, but at least that game was competitive.

[NCAARules]

Butler better get back to taking air out of the ball. Those last three quick possessions did nothing for them.

[NersEllenson]

They are also very traditional....

[MUMac]

i would say it's built.

Imagine if Heyward stayed.  Very impressive team.  

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

The Gonzaga of the Midwest!  

[NersEllenson]

Butler is 48 in Pomroy...wow..rarely do we see Pomroy ratings so far off..that Butler will have beat Number 4 WI and Pitt.

All those damn Badger fans can now shut up about the Big East being weak, etc.  At least Pitt didn't get punked like this.  Pitt actually competed and had a very good chance to win.

Nope. I haven't watched any of it, and I'm afraid that if I do, UW will go on a huge tear.

Can't say I'm that worried. It would take a UL level comeback. Wisconsin just doesn't play good enough at pace to do that. The same reason they are so hard to come back on is the same reason they can't really be expected to pull off a big come back either.
