Butler Bulldogs
 
Last year they went all the way and lost to Duke. This year Duke is out and Butler just made it to the final four in an exciting OT game against the Florida Gaters.

This team amazes me. Their school only has 4,640 students. It's something to watch. These kids are calm, unafraid of the big guys and play with heart.

My family on my Dads side is from Indiana so I root normally for the Hoosiers but they are a non factor lately.

My favorite team is UCLA but sadly the are mediocre lately too

Amazing, I haven't paid much attention to the tourney this year, as I lose interest when the underdogs are all eliminated (I love the first round). BUt I assumed Butler wouldn't be that good after they lost one of their stars to the NBA last season (don't know the kids name-or anyone name on that team). I saw they were playing Florida, but didn't know it was today. I didn't plan to watch it anyway, as I figured the clock would strike midnight for them.

But TWO straight final four appearences by a school of that size and a who knows what conference. That is amazing. I'd love to see them win it all.

Yeah. I think his last name was howard or something like that. I thought the same thing.

It was a pretty exciting game

I want to see Arizona win today but so far it looks like they have no answer for Kemba Walker

No one has an answer for Kemba.

Apparently, but to be fair, in the end of the game it wasn't Kemba that was the deciding factor for UConn
