Should be a good game tonight. Butler the "David" in the match up is starting to lose that stigma of a Cinderella because they are becoming such a polished school with 2 straight years in the final four. They have one of the highest touted coaches in the league now, and he is only 34. UConn will be entering the game on the back of Kemba Walker, which isn't different then what they have done all season. Both are quality teams, obviously UConn can out talent Butler, but Butler has always been a team that plays with a lot of heart, and a more modern scheme from the coaching aspect. Expecting a great game and hopefully the Mid major can finally win the big tourney for the first time!

Yes - one of the more boring games in the past several years.

Really a lot of people like to take away from the greatness of the KU/Memphis OT game simply because they're KU haters, but in reality, after that game in '08 it will probably be a while before we get a NCAA Championship Game of that quality.

I couldn't get into it. I watched on and off throughout the first half, and even with an exciting ending to the first half, I couldn't bring myself to tune back in. Pawn Stars and American Pickers held my interest way better than this dog of a game.

My name is Maximus Decimus Warthog, member of HomeoftheChiefs.com, former season ticket holder of the lower level , loyal servant to the true coach, Martimus Schottenheimer. Father to disenfranchised sons, husband to a non football fanatic wife, and I will see my Chiefs in a Super Bowl, in this life or the next.

I tried... I mean really tried to watch this game but it was horrible! I couldn't take it anymore and after halftime, I decided to go to sleep versus being put to sleep by a bad game.

However, I did get a good night sleep so thank you Butler and UCONN!
Pure blind luck... it's been protecting children from fire for centuries!
