March Madness elite eight day 1

Are the Butler Bulldogs just a another Cinderella story or the real deal? The Butler Bulldogs have messed up maybe a 100,000 NCAA brackets all over the country. First, Butler beat Pitt. Then the Wisconsin Badgers and now the Bulldogs knock the Gators out of the tournament. The score was 74-71 after one OT. The Bulldogs held Chandler Parsons to only five points and Erving Walker to only eight points! The Butler Bulldogs are in the Final Four.

The Arizona Wildcats had an amazing run at it. They beat a lot of teams against odds. First they beat the Texas Longhorns and then they blew off the Duke Blue Devils in the sweet sixteen. But in the Elite eight they couldn't beat the Connecticut Huskies . The top shooters were Derrick Williams with an equal amount of points as Kemba Walker with 20 points. The final score was as close as most game get it was a two point game and the score was 65-62. The Connecticut Huskies are in the Final Four.

  1. Florida shoud have put Butler away when they had the chance. Butler showed their resolve in this game and should not be underestimated. I’m glad to see experience still counts in the tourney. In all likelihood they’ll be playing Kansas and I will be rooting for them. They are only the fifth team in the last 20 years to get to the Final Four while being unranked in the Final AP Poll.
