Wonder if UNC's players got their "PAPER" written for their final grades in their classes?

 

Sorry-couldn't resist! :laugh:

UNC doesn't look like the number 6 team in the country, at all.

 

Kansas and UNC are vastly overrated IMO

So Butler looks like a loss for us

While people may hate Butler they know how to win a game when it is all on the line.

I don't know if this is butler or if UNC just can't shoot to save their lives. Butler is out working them by miles tho.

Said it before the season started, Butler will beat us again this season. It will be another nail in Crean's coffin.

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

Butler has one tenth the talent as UNC----but ten times the heart!

 

SCRAPPY!

 

I hope they hold on....

[Hovadipo 59,491]

You have to break a federal law to get a foul in this game.

[CampHoosier 3,697]

We are going to beat Butler and I am going to bark at every single fan at Banker's Life just like they did 2 years ago. 

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

Suck it, Roy!

Btw...

Etherington - 0/2 for 0 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 personal fouls

But I really miss his leadership and experience. Can't believe we ran him off.

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

Way to go Dogs!

[BlueDevil 9,292]

Go to hell Carolina!

[ou812dude 3,326]

damn...wasn't expecting that...

maybe Butler's not all that bad?...or nah

[OliviaPope40 7,103]

That was quite a game and now they have to play either Oklahoma or UCLA.

I hope UNC blows them out in the 2nd half. I hate Butler and their merry cluster of bandwagon idiots. "I've bled Butler blue since...2008!" What a joke of a fanbase. 10 years ago Hinkle was about as full as a 4A regular season basketball game

YES!! this right here. I hated all the bandwagon fans after they made their FF runs. I started rooting for Butler when I first started getting into watching cbb and they were only an above average team with the likes of aj graves and co... those were fun teams to watch and root for them because they were usually underdogs when they were on national TV. The eventual influx of random fans around the state, especially those in Bloomington with no Butler ties made me sick xD

[ou812dude 3,326]

Butler nabbed 29 offensive rebounds against #5 North Carolina...

I wonder how IU will respond to that aggressiveness?

[Townie 138]

watching the Butler game it reminds me of the significance of the "mood" and whistles from the refs in the college game.

 

Some teams like Butler, Duke, Louisville, etc... love playing this tenacious and scrappy defense where they are straight up mugging people.  I feel like to a degree, a lot of big ten games have this form of scrappy play the refs allow.  I wonder if this translates to better or worse success later on in March where the refs are more liberal with their whistles...

 

thoughts anyone?

Too bad we didn't get Theo Pinson.
