    What will the Kansas/Butler line be?

    Assuming Kansas beats Virginia Commonwealth, which they should. I'm hoping it's Kansas -8 or something like that. I already like Butler to cover. What's your line prediction?

    I like Kansas to cover. If Florida was up by 11 I can see Kansas holding that lead and more as Self is a great coach.

    Butler doesn't quit though. When they lose in the NCAA Tournament it's always close. You can handicap this game any way you want and say that Kansas should cover, but I have a feeling this game will go down to the wire like the Butler/Duke game last season, and pretty much all of Butler's NCAA Tournament games. I like Kansas to win a close one.

    I gotta look at this game harder but I don't think Butler has played any team rated as high as KU in reqards to their Offense/Defense metrics.

    Never bet against Butler. As long as its more than 7, I'm taking Butler to cover.

    I would guess Kansas around -8 at least? Florida was -4 and I think Kansas is at least 4 or 5 better than UF.

    Butler can only grow and get better mentally from their incredible comeback victory against the gators. And they also found a guy on their bench that can be a contributor for them forgot his name but he looked like a talented kid. Butler will find a way to stay in this game, i would stay away if they had to play kansas on a days rest but over a full week theyll be ready.

    Butler will be the first test of the tourney for kansas, kinda crazy there first test not coming until the final 4. But when they do meet Kansas may be so relaxed from playing all these weak teams, I think it will go to the wire. I probably will stay away from that game though

    Butler forces turnovers and shoots 3s very well, that's what got them so many comeback wins. But if Florida could dominate the paint vs. Butler imagine what KU can do with the Morris Twins and Thomas Robinson. I'd suspect the line would be -11 just like it was with VCU and Richmond. I mean at this point the championship is really Kansas' to lose.

    Florida SCORED in the paint, Butler outrebounded UF by around 8. They won't be outmuscled inside, ODU and Pitt couldn't do it, nobody else is any better than those 2. It won't be -11

    Pittsburgh opened at -7.5 against Butler and closed at -8. Kansas is better than Pittsburgh, but surely a correction is in order. I think we'll see a similar line. Kansas -8, give or take half a point, probably.

    Great response. It's pretty of him to say that you're on the wrong side if you pick against Butler w/o even seeing the spread.

    Yeah, so much for that. I guess we'll never know. I really didn't think they would lose.
