Butler was so close to pulling out a victory over rival Xavier Tuesday night, but they couldn’t quite get it done. Between overcoming the halftime deficit, going into overtime, taking the lead and eventually losing, Bulldog fans had all the feels.
Trip is so pupportive.
Strong effort by my Dawgs tonight. Chins up, @ButlerMBB. Proud of you guys. Another big test on Saturday. Let’s get to work. #GoDawgs

This is basketball, y’all.
This @ButlerMBB vs @XavierMBB game is unbelievable. College hoops at its finest.

Ok um Bluiett hitting that shot was so mean and disrespectful. How dare he put a dagger in our wholesome comeback?
