Butler’s win over Xavier came after the Blogpoll was tabulated so that game didn’t factor into the rankings. At the time the rankings were done, Butler was 9-1 (loss to an underrated Ohio State team) with 2 decent, but not great wins against Cleveland State and Northwestern. Xavier was 9-1 (loss to a very highly ranked Duke team) with a good win against Cincy and a “great” win against an overrated Memphis team. I’m pretty sure when the next Blogpoll comes out Butler will be ranked and probably be above Xavier.

That pretty much sums it all up.

Besides we weren’t the only ones to leave butler out. All 10 other blogpollers did likewise.

Give it a rest not only is Xavier a little overrated, but Butler should be in your Top twenty.

We were late getting it up this week.

How does that work?

Yet 10-1 Butler who has played a similar if not better schedule and smacked them in Cincinnati is not even ranked. Nice work, do you even watch basketball ?
