Under-the-Radar Team to Watch: Butler (26-8, 11-5 A-10)
We should know by now to never underestimate Brad Stevens and Butler. The Bulldogs made it to the national championship game in 2010 and 2011, shocking just about everyone in the process.
The Bulldogs lost to a strong SLU team in the A-10 tournament on March 16. Then again, SLU has simply had their number all season (three losses to the Billikens). When looking at the Bulldogs' overall body of work, it screams "Cinderella team."
Butler has beaten North Carolina, Gonzaga and Indiana this season. The Bulldogs rank 73rd in the nation in field-goal percentage, but they stepped up offensively against UNC, Gonzaga and Indiana. They also know how to crash the glass, out-rebounding all three teams during the season (they rank ninth in the nation in rebounding rate).
The Bulldogs need to score to win (ranked 117th in the country in opponents' field-goal percentage), but, then again, they've shown they can do that against some top competition. It doesn't hurt having sharp-shooter Rotnei Clarke.
Prediction: Kansas Wins the Title
Kansas (29-5, 14-4 Big 12) basically has everything but a true point guard.
The Jayhawks rank 14th in the nation in field-goal percentage, 14th in rebounding rate and first in opponents' field-goal percentage. They also have two stars to lead them in freshman guard Ben McLemore and senior center Jeff Withey.
Kansas has won 10 of its last 11 games, including victories over Kansas State (twice) and Oklahoma State.
Of course, like practically every top team this season, Kansas has been upset in spectacular fashion. The Jayhawks lost to unranked Baylor on March 9, 81-58, getting manhandled in almost every category. It was their worst defeat in seven years.
But, in the end, I think the Jayhawks will be able to put the loss to Baylor in the rear-view mirror. They have the talent, and they generally execute on both sides of the floor.
