Yes, it is an ugly one, but:
1) Butler may be primed for a letdown off of some big wins, looking ahead to a "certain" showdown with Indiana tomorrow night
2) Samford and Son ain't half-bad, with an RPI of 63 and a tight loss at Georgia on their resume'
3) Samford is in the Princeton mode, a team who milks clock, runs the back-door cut time and again, and generally frustrates people
All signs, to me, point to a tighter than expected game, with points at a premium.
Butler 65, Samford 50.
