I think it was the best half of the year for us - both offensively and defensively

Easily best half of the season, IMO. Huge to win big, too. Second Quad 1 road win of the year by 20+ points.

Great showing to break the hex at the Hinkle Stinkle.

Very, very good win against a team fighting for its life in a difficult environment.

Thankfully Butler regressed to the mean in the second half and couldn't sustain its incredible first half defense. Of course the Jays had a lot to do with that. Baylor is emerging as a true force (all-American?). Good that they got the ball into Kalk more in the second half.

Don't understand why Miller sat so much of the second half. He had a good first half.

And now for UConn.

That second half was beautuful. The Jays with a nation-leading (P6) 7 road wins. Impressive.

The most lopsided Butler home loss since...well, last time they lost by that many. Not sure when that was, but it had to be a while ago. I think Purdue smacked them pretty good, but that had to be a few years back.
