Dana O'Neil and Pat Forde both picked Butler to the Final 4. I wont lie, I would be pretty pissed if they made it before us. I do think they will be very good this year and that will be a great game between X and Butler.

I woudln't be pissed. Jealous? Yes. But certainly not pissed. I think they are a solid program, respectable, and they seem to do things the right way. Zaga making a Fional Four would piss me off. Never liked them since they backed out of their "anyteam, anytime, anywhere", promise.

But if Butler makes it, then so be it. If we lose at Butler, then we lost to a Final Four team. If we beat them, ever better.

Either way, I think that with the direction that both programs are taking, I find it very reasonable to expect both X and Butler making the Final Four within a decade.

Ok, pissed was the wrong word. I agree I would be jealous though.

Lets just agree that is Zaga makes a final four before us, we'll sacrifice a Flyer?

I'd be pissed actually. I get pissed anytime Xavier does go to the Final Four.

I have a lot of issues.

Regarding Butler getting to the Final Four this year, two words: No way!

I find this odd, but I'm sure hoping you get pissed soon!

Butler pulls it out. I don't know how good Davidson will be this year, but it seems like a great win for BU to start off the season.

I'd certainly prefer Butler to, say, Kentucky.

And Gonzaga should be off the shit list. They're playing us now.
