As we all know the Final Four starts this weekend. This year there are a couple of suprise teams in the the Final Four. One of these teams is Butler, which is in a weak Confrence so nobody thought they were very good. Michigan St. is the other suprise team, because they are with out their best player in Calin Lucas. The other two teams that are in the Final Four are West Virginia lead by Butler and Ebanks and Duke which is lead by Nolan, Singler, and Scheier.
Duke and Butler are projected to win their games and Duke is favored to be the National Championship.
In my opinion I think that Michigan St. is going to beat Butler. Michigan St. will out rebound and be more physical the Butler. This will lead to only one shot everytime Butler gets the ball, because Michigan St. will rebound. In the other game I see West Virginia beating Duke because of thier defensive toughness and some help from Butler and Ebanks on the offensive end. In the National Championship game I believe that West Virginia will beat Michigan St. by a wide margin because of the absence of Lucas.

Butler
Butler was able to accomplish something that has never happened before. They were able to stay undefeated (18-0) in Confrence play. They are in the the Horizon League which is not known as one of the best Confrences. The few games that they palyed good or even decent teams they lost (Clemson Georgetown). The good teams they beat were without there star player like Ohio State(Evan Turner) and Northwestern(Kevin Koble). With this information what seed do you think they deserve in the NCAA Tournament?
In my opinion I do not think that Butler seserves a seed any lower than a six. They did go undefeated in there Confrence, but they have no competion. I think that if Butler wants to be taken seriously then they need to join a better Confrence (Big 12 or Big Ten). This would truly test Butler's true skill. Butler is way overrated, and I think that if they want a low seed then they need to have a tougher non-Confrence schedule or join a different Confrence.
