2010 Butler easily -- AO or not that team still could have won that year. Remember what they did to a good Gonzaga team the round before. That was not a strong field that year. This was before Butler became the darlings they have become, so it was a shock to lose to them, especially when they barely got by Murray State the round before.

2013 Michigan - It hurt, but they played so badly in the first half they should have never put themselves in that predicament. MCW was awful in that game. Yeah, the refs were screwy late in that game, but that team was so offensively challenged I just don't know. But that D was good enough to win a title the way they were going.

2012 Ohio State -- Again, still could have made the FF that year even though they had no shot against UK without Fab. But the refs in that game -- just unspeakably bad and biased.

I guess the Dayton loss next, but that team was pretty much done already -- never recovered after that BC loss (and to me really after the way too hyped Duke game at home), so while they should have won that game, it was clear at that point the team wasn't winning anything. The worst part about that year to me is that team was talented enough to win the whole thing -- issues and all. That was one of the weakest fields ever. A team with Ennis, Grant, Christmas, Fair, Cooney etc was good enough to cut down the nets considering who came out of their regions and who actually won it all.
