    I got Butler 68-65

    Butler pulls out yet another close game. The guards are even for both teams and Matt Howard is the deciding factor on the boards and at the line.

    I hope Butler wins. I’d like to see the mid major coference team take it for once( no i Don’t count UNLV back in the day because they were in a mid major conference but they were definatly a high major team)

    I’m saying UConn.  72-63

    Jeremy Lamb and Kemba Walker really show up.

    I have Butler winning 62-57, I believe Nored is one of the best perimeter defenders in College Basketball and will be able to hold Kemba below 20 points or make him try and carry the team and not allow others to get involved or even score consistently. Butler has shown the ability to execute their gameplans to perfection, they are able to stay in games even without scoring a lot because of their defensive toughness and heart but I think Mack will have a really good game, Howard will do a good job down low, and Butler as a team defensively can contain guys like Lamb and Napier, and Oriahki down low, but if they allow Lamb to score too much and Oriahki to man the paint then it will become a very different game, it is all a matter of how the role players of Butler such as Smith, Marshall, and Vanzant step up.

    I got UConn. I know this isn’t a true basketball mean of measurement, but their team has swagger. They have great confidence & they’re also playing really well together. That, combined with the leadership of Kemba Walker and the experience of Jim Calhoun will help UConn with the chip this year. Butler is playing really well, but I see them coming up short like last year. It will be a close game though.

     This should be a great game to watch and I personally do not care who wins or what the final score is. It will be a close game but I have no idea who will win. Never underestimate the power of Butler when they have a great coach like Brad Stevens. 

    Uconn has made an amazing run and I would like to see them win it all. I do like watching Kemba team and watching this Uconn team and rooting for them is very contagious, then again so is rootng for Butler.

    Sorry no predictions here. That might be lame to the rest, but I don’t like to predict the winner of the Championship game because many times during this tournament I have had to eat my words. But this should be a great game to watch and I can’t wait to see what Kemba will do next or if Butler can pull off the upset after they came so close last year.

    never bet against kemba im from ny and when kemba is the marquee guy on his teams in tournys they rarely rarely lose,exp the summer before his senior season in hs they won almost every tourny in aau which help boost his ranmkings in the espn 100

    UConn 61-56 Butler plays hard,but comes up a few shots short. Nored fouls out with…4 mins left on a questionable call. Kemba takes advantage. If I’m right I want atleast 30 points, if i’m wrong(which is likely) do as you may….

    I got Uconn but Im starting to regret that choice. I just have always loved Uconn watching their trials and tribulations makes me so happy to see where they have gotten this year. But everyone seems to have Butlers as underdogs once again, will they reallyblow it 2 years in a row. Its gonna be a fight out there.
