NCAA Championship Game: Butler vs. UConn

Great match up on Monday night between a mid-major darling, the Butler Bulldogs, facing one of the better major conference programs, the UConn Huskies. Questions entering tonight's NCAA Championship Game:

• Who will win the battle of the boards in Houston?


• Which team's junior star will have the better game: UConn's Kemba Walker vs. Butler's Shelvin Mack


• UConn is 31-9 record compared to an almost as impressive 28-9 record for Butler: by the numbers...


• Both teams average about 72 points for the season


• The youth of Butler's head coach Brad Stevens vs. UConn's veteran bench coach Jim Calhoun, looking to be the oldest head coach to win a NCAA title game

It should be a good game Monday night in Houston. Look for a score in the 60s... our pick: UConn over Butler!
