Florida, UConn -3?

My initial knee jerk reaction would be to hop all over Butler and Zona after last nights performances. But, as much as I would like to see Butler win it all, I think FLA has too much size and depth in the paint (not just big guys like Wisc that shoot from the outside). I hope I am wrong but I could see FLA pulling away at the end to win by 6-8..

As far as Uconn I know D Williams is a matchup nightmare for anyone but anyone that has bet UCONN started 2 Thursdays ago against Depaul has not lost since...7 straight covers..can't get off them now. Uconn 78-69

Butler will be in tough this time. They finally run into a team with legit down low scoring in macklin and tyus.

Shelvin Mack is going to have a big game here.

Butler will play better than BYU. BYU was a one man show that 2nd half. running terrible sets. Butler will play their hearts out, hussle better and run better sets and play better defense.

Nored on Walker will be key.

I have watched FLA probably 8-10 times this year and I still dont know what to make of them. The could have easily of lost to UCLA or BYU, their only 2 losses over the past month or so have been to Kentucky. Are they lucky to be alive or are they surviving and advancing like good tourney teams do. I have been riding Butler the past 10 games or so and love how they are playing but I just don't know if they could hold up to the pounding on the boards that FL will bring. I also dont know if I trust M Howard to be on the floor for 30+ minutes and not be in foul trouble.
