Hours after President Obama filled out a bracket predicting 11th-seeded Texas would topple sixth-seeded Butler in the opening round of the NCAA tournament, first-year Bulldogs coach Chris Holtmann fired back with a clever quip of his own.
"I notice not many people are picking us, including our President," Holtmann told reporters Wednesday. "So that's going to be the last time I vote for him."
Holtmann is correct though that Butler is not getting much respect at all in the buildup to Thursday's game. Las Vegas oddsmakers have anointed Texas the slim favorite even though it's the lower seed and Yahoo users have made Texas the most popular choice among the No. 11 seeds to win their opening-round game.
