And Butler has a tough one. But as usual, they are giving Pitt all they can handle.

This win-or-you're-done pressure is the greatest thing to watch.
You can almost see some of these guys "getting it" with time dwindling down.
The real warriors really step up.

I like both Pitt and Butler so I'll be sad to see either one go.

Gives you more opportunities to win. At least they have a chance now, I guess. But had Pitt made a bucket (extremely possible) with 10 seconds left, they would have been completely screwed. As it is, I still don't love Butler's chances.

The Butler/Duke rematch hope is still alive!
