Butler was 12/64 (18.8%) overall and 9/33 (27.3%) from three. Using my math skillz, they were 3/31 (9.7%) on two-point field goals. They couldn't be that bad again if they tried. I remember them missing several shots from inside 3 feet.

I'm pretty sure Butler only had one 2PT FG in the first 38 minutes of the game. I think they got two deuces real late."You make your name in the regular season, and your fame in the postseason." - Clyde Frazier

This state will be wiped off the map after Saturday. It's already started. There will be bodily injuries come Saturday night. People tend to think of Duke/UNC as the best rivalry and I can see that. Their games always produce drama. But when it comes to just downright hatred. Many do not understand Louisville/Kentucky. Sunday I was pumping gas, wearing my brand new Final Four shirt, when out of nowhere, this old lady approached me and said "Why the hell are you wearing that! Today is our day!" Then she looked me up and down like she was ready to swing on me. For a second I was kind of spooked. She was really upset. My Facebook has already been blown up. It's gonna get nasty, real nasty.Comment

Not really excited for this year's Final Four. Kind of lost interest after Ohio blew it. I don't like any of these teamsbut I guess I want OSU to win it to rep the B1G.

Being from Memphis, I find the the Louisville/Kentucky game must see TV just to see if Pitino can thwart Cal in the Final Four. Hoping Louisville can pull it offComment

What's even better is that both guys were in their 70's. LOL. I don't think anyone outside the state of KY can really understand the intense rivalry. As far as Kentucky fans (I am one) it is difficult to put into words just how much we care about Kentucky basketball. It is part of our identities. You grow up a UK fan and you live and die with games. I know it seems silly to most and I know there are great fans of every team. However, in KY this is the one thing that people all can rally around. It is really unique. Indiana has great fans, but they have Purdue, Notre Dame, the Colts, Pacers etc. to root for. Same as Duke and Carolina, yes they care and love their teams, but the majority of the state has plenty of other rooting interests. In KY, UK basketball is a year round thing. The most similar situations are Alabama, Oklahoma type football. It's hard to explain, but it just matters...A LOT.
At first, we just wanted to prove that we belonged in the same class as Kentucky. The past 10 years, we just ignored that and concentrated on building our brand. As a result we surpassed UK in terms of facilities, olympic sports, revenue, etc. UK fans are frustrated because their A. Department seems to focus on basketball and gives other sports, particularily football, the shaft. Then, the powers that be in Lexington looked over at what was going on in Louisville, and were shocked. As if it happened overnight, they saw Louisville transform from that little commuter school, to a campus with brand new housing, research buildings, dining facilities, etc. For some reason UK leaders fell asleep and Louisville became aggressive. As I mentioned earlier, we're now getting students from areas in this state that would've never happened 10-15 years ago. UK sees this as us stepping into their turf and now new wars are starting. The schools put billboards up near each others campuses. All we have in this state are our college teams and that is one of the main reasons why this rivalry is so heated, athletically and academically.Comment

Pretty entertaining first half.
You just can't help but think though that Louisville doesn't have enough offense to really win this game considering how badly they struggle in the half-court to get good looks, but they're hanging in there and it will probably go down to the wire.Comment
