CARBONDALE, Ill. -- The Southern Illinois bench, a source of sorrow so far this season, is outscoring Butler's reserves, 8-6. Only Pete Campbell has come off the pine to score for the Bulldogs with two treys. SIU got six from former starter Tony Boyle and two from Carlton Faye.

Faye's line: Two points, three fouls and a rebound and two turnovers in four minutes. A so-so call by the refs on an offensive foul, however, has won him the pity of the home crowd.
