The new CBS poll has X #8 and Butler #9. Interesting.

Butler would get handily defeated at the Cintas and Xavier would be favored and win by 6-8 at Butler.

The game would not be a blowout at either arena. Butler has not played the schedule that Xavier has, but Butler has plenty of senior leadership to keep the game close, even at Cintas. Butler may be overrated, but they are still a quality team this year.

i agree Muskie, it would be a good game anywhere, I don't know where the blowout talk comes from, but check our schedule, i don't know the last time BU lost by double digits, i don't think it has happened in the last two years

Actually the boodawgs lost to Wright St by 12 last year. And that took me exactly 42 seconds to look up.

You have no credibility.

I checked the schedule, you would have to play with 3 big white stiffs under 6'4" to lose by double digits this year.

It is hard to lose by double digits when you play nobody....

Lets see.... Butler has 1 game against a team in the top 50 RPI (Ohio State #47). Wow, that's a tough schedule.

Drake will be the first very good team you have faced this year.... Let's see how you do against them at home.

"The new CBS poll has X #8 and Butler #9. Interesting."

The other polls have Butler #8 and Xavier #10/12. Interesting

And with that ranking what are the projected seeds for Butler in the tournament? I will answer that, between 6-8. Xavier as a solid 3.

This is boring, kinda like arguing American is as good as Gonzaga.

Every legitimate bracket projection has Xavier seeded higher than Butler.... Interesting.
