We may get our real life Hoosiers story after all… Butler was able to top Michigan State 52-50 – typical Midwest shootout – and one seed Duke toppled West Virginia 78-57. West Virginia’s MVP Da’Sean Butler tore his left ACL with 9 minutes remaining which lead to an intimate and super awkward player-coach moment (1:10 mark), but a healthy Da’Sean wouldn’t have made the difference.
Tonight Butler and Duke will meet to decide the national championship at 9:30 pm ET on CBS. Check in to see the future players of this epic squad battle it out. It’s a true David vs Goliath finish and worth tuning in to see if the home town Cinderella can pull off the upset!
not a true cinderella IMO…butler got jipped with a 5 seed..they were a 4 loss team in the reg season and had the longest winning streak going into the tourney…in the USA today/ESPN coaches poll they were 8 and duke was 3…yes if butler won it would be an upset, but cinderella..NO..either way GO DAWGS
you think butlers gotta good shot eggs?
yes sir, butler will win, and you can take that to the bank..
The Bulldogs were SO CLOSE to a Hoosier miracle! Damn… gotta give it up to those boys, great effort. Most of them will be back next year so look out for Butler in 2010-2011!
