butler bulldogs under 128

im not convinced that ou has enough shooters to consistently knock down shots against butler's half-court defense. this one was a real grinder last year (butler won 64-63 in overtime in and was a gm that probably should have ended in regulation -- butler rallied from 5 down in final 0:20 to get it to OT) and both teams shot < 39% from the floor. butlers methodical style of play has a tendency to frustrate teams, and ohio has a mix of freshman/sophs and jucos that havent played a whole lot together. butler just held a good miami team to 48 pts last time out. this one should remain close throughout and i think it ends up in the high 100teens. think butler wins the game, but dont trust em as much away from hinkle.

vinnie:

looks like not getting it in is a good thing. 57 pts at halftime. and then a track meet in the 2nd half.

 

[gman2]

then again...even with the early 2h track meet, only 65 2h pts.

64-58 final. lol.

 

[volfan]

2 and counting :clap: I won't miss the next one :banghead:

2nd half nebraska cornhuskers (+1)

uab shoots too many 3s for my liking. if theyre falling, look out. but i dont think they will be able to close this game out with the way they stay on the perimeter. nebraska should make a push to get back in it.
