The 68 Can’t-Miss Games of 2010-11 (#54-41)--Rush The Court

#41. December 4 – Butler vs. Duke, 3:30 pm (ESPN)- The anticipation of this national title rematch soured a bit when Gordon Hayward elected to stay in the NBA Draft, but this ranking still might be too low. Butler can hang with Duke, especially if Shelvin Mack emerges into the All-America candidate most evaluators believe he can be. Even if Butler’s Ronald Nored locks up Nolan Smith and Mack has his way with freshman Kyrie Irving, who matches up with Kyle Singler on the wing? Are the Plumlees athletic enough to coax Matt Howard into foul trouble? The Bulldogs will have to slow this game’s pace to a grind to stand a chance of avenging last April’s title bout.
