Really can't say enough about Brad Stevens. Back-to-back trips to the Championship Game at Butler...including the year after losing his best player. Amazing.

70-62 final. I was afraid that foul-fest in the last minute was going to bust the under.

Great game.

Congrats to VCU for a great run. They were a pleasure to watch.

Congrats to Butler for turning a 'fluke' into a habit.

The last team that beat them was Youngstown State. Go figure.

Brad Stevens is remarkable

I would say Butler beats UK and loses to Uconn.....just thing the Butler Bulldogs could be the NCAA Tournament Champions......

In the first meeting since this Final Four encounter, VCU are blowing the doors off Butler at halftime, 45-21.

Butler is not even in the top 25 anymore which surprised me when I saw it but I guess they have gotten a little worse since they beat Crean's(crybaby) boys.

Not many good games on today.

Actually, Butler is ranked 20/21 in the polls, but probably not after today. VCU just handed them their worst loss under Brad Stevens, 84-52.

Both teams were 22-6 coming into the game, so don't be surprised if Shaka Smart's boys make some noise in the tournament, again.

I was going by the CBSsports.com RPI poll which has them unranked
