"a bit?" That was one of the best teams I've seen Butler play. Like ever.

This tourney shows you how ridiculous early season rankings are. Miami is definitely top 25 and should be top 10. They beat two ranked teams this weekend.

Lewis looked about the same as he did when he played at NC State. He will struggle to keep quick guards in front of him. Angel Rodriguez is quick and better teams will have guards who are similar.

First time the absence of Alex Barlow was felt. lack of perimeter D and toughness. lack of leadership. Butler gave up way too many easy baskets. lack of length and athleticism is nothing new for butler but they make up for it with team D and hustle on the board. didn't see much of that last night. very unButler like performance.

I thought Miami completely took advantage of Lewis' lack of height. They repeatedly shot over him, rebounded over him, etc. Miami is very good and should do a lot of damage in the ACC
