* #22 Butler 64, Cleveland State 55. Butler’s two stars, Gordon Hayward and Matt Howard, had only three FGs between them tonight, their lowest combined output since nearly a year ago against Wisconsin-Milwaukee (another win). Willie Veasley (16 pts) and Shelvin Mack (15/4/4 assts) picked up the pace for the Bulldogs, though, as the team moved to 6-0 in the Horizon League.


The State of the Other 24: Week 5--The Mid-Majority

2. Butler (Horizon League), 101.794, 12-4 (5-0)

Butler is coming off what appears to be the toughest road swing in the Horizon League this season, at Detroit and at Wright State. It wasn't easy, but the Bulldogs managed to win both last week. In the process they acquired a two-game advantage in the HL standings, and appear ready to let everyone else fight it out for 2nd place. So how has Butler gotten it together of the past few weeks? Well, for starters, Horizon League play was good medicine. But, Shelvin Mack has had an increased presence on the offensive end. He put together three leading-scorer performances against Green Bay, Milwaukee, and Wright State to help Butler get back on track. However, his points appear to be coming at the expense of a reduced offensive role for Matt Howard.
