Butler Up Early
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. -- Sorry for the delay. The post-game press conferences took awhile. In particular, there's a guy who covers Purdue that likes to hear himself talk, which sort of drags things on.
Butler is up, 22-14, on Florida State at the second timeout thanks in part to two A.J. Graves three-pointers.
Butler is 18th ranked in the AP poll but coming off a loss to Wright State in conference play. Butler is without the services of Pete Campbell again today. Campbell is the team's second leading scorer at 14.1 points per game.
Florida State is team schizophrenia so far this year. They have losses to Big East bottom-feeder USF and Horizon league bottom-feeder Cleveland State. But the Seminoles have also beaten Minnesota, Florida and UAB and have won six straight overall. The 'Noles have not played in the state of Indiana since 1998. They played Butler at Hinkle that season.
