A major upset would be fun to watch. Anyone know what the line is?

C’mon Butler! Help us take our mind off our impending doom for a few hours.

seven is the number that balanced the bookies’ books? I would thought it would be double digits.

I’ll take the under.

I greatly admire Butler, but I’m sorry, they are not going to beat Duke tonight.
The Bulldogs have had a terrific run, but I don’t see how they can beat a team as coached and talented as this Blue Devil squad. And no, I am not a Duke alum, but I did pick Duke to win it all in my pool.

not a betting man myself, but 129.5 seems low. You don’t see too many title games in the low 60’s.

In less than two hours it will become apparent that the ACC will for the fifth time in ten years take the championship home. How many for the big east,big ten,pac ten,big 12,sec ? Not as many combined as the ACC. It’s no wonder the rest of the country roots for the demise of Tobacco Road. That day may come but not any time soon.

Duke looked pretty good....in handling WV.

But Butler has taken out a couple of pretty good teams too.

I hope Butler wins, if only to give some reflective light to Indiana's Governor as possible Pres candidate.

A 69-60 game hits the number on the nose.

I havent been glued to the tube, but several of the games i did watch seemed to be on the low scoring side in this tourney.

If you take the point spread and the O/U, Vegas has it 68-61 Duke.

hmmm... seems I heard that exact same thing said Friday night.
NO WAY they could keep up with Michigan State.

If butler wins, duke will have been kept below 60. I’m thinking the score will be 63 59 but I don’t know who wins. 3 players for duke scored 63 of 73 pts against wvu the other night. Hold one of those guys to single digits and you’ve got duke at or below 60.
