Butler vs. LSU (NCAAB) - Mar 19, 2009 12:20 PM EDTPlay: Point Spread: -1.5/-109 LSU Pick Title: NCAA TournamentThe LSU Tigers are a older group of players, with 4 starters back from last season, that are long, quick, and athletic. While they have a future NBA Player in Thorton, what impresses me the most about LSU is their defense and how they not only defend every shot, but deny the pass as well. Butler on the other hand is a good team, but is not the Butler team the general public thinks it is. Butler lost 4 starters off last Year's team that made a run last March, and is a young team. Butler hasn't played a team that defends as well as LSU all season and I expect LSU to take advantage of the mismatches on the court.
