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.

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.
