Butler at Arkansas

Things haven't always gone right for Butler this season, but they are a team that has an NCAA Tournament pedigree making it all the way to the Final Four twice. They always seem to be up to the challenge under the bright lights, and own wins vs. Ohio State and Villanova, and played Xavier to within seven points, so there is a reason why they are a slight favorite. Arkansas has had troubles of their own, opening the season an impressive 12-2, but stumbling to a pedestrian 11-9 finish. Looking closer at the 11-9 finish reveals the fact that many of those games were not competitive, as seven of the nine losses were by 10 points or more. Butler has a way of playing their best in the Dance, and like them to advance. Make the play on Butler.
