Dawgs -9.5

Wouldn’t be surprised if the final score was closer than that though.

Hopefully the dawgs meet expectations for this game. Their non-conf slate is a murderers row from here on out.
MD, TX, Duke, one of (Stanford, FL, Zags, or Ohio St.), Utah, and Purdue among others. Wow. No room for slipups or
off nights on that slate. BECB says 10-3. That is very optimistic.

KenPom says 8-3 (two other games in Portland are not included). But if the games completely play out like KenPom says (which is unlikely obviously), Butler would presumably face Portland State (W) and then Stanford (W).

So, I don't think 10-3 is out of the question.

KenPom:

#42 Creighton 90 vs. #330 Alcorn St. 63 (99%)
#80 Georgetown 85 vs. #320 Jacksonville 66 (96%)
#26 Seton Hall 85 vs. #167 Monmouth 68 (94%)
#46 Butler 74 vs. #87 Princeton 65 (80%)

Three cupcakes and a nice test before Maryland for Butler. Should make it 12-1 today.
