Good preview. However, this whole "it's so hard to beat a team three times in one season is so old and tired at this point." It easier (I wouldn't say much easier) than people would like to acknowledge.
It's going to be a great game so let's go MILWAUKEE!

"The Panthers were the first ones to really start the stirrings of the Horizon's quality basketball. Astute college fans will remember their back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances that resulted in at least one win in 2005 and 2006. Of course that second year resulted in the Panthers destroying a bevy of brackets when they made a run to the Sweet 16."
Like the article but shouldn't that say the 1st year resulted in the sweet 16 run?
2005: Sweet 16 2006: 2nd Round

I just keep thinking of the line from the movie Letters From Iwo Jima:
Everything comes in threes.
This will be proven tonight...I don't care that we are not favored...just more motivation...I also just have that gut feeling...WE WILL WIN!!!

Yes know but the article was only talking about our back to back appearances in '05 and '06 not '03. I just feel its either worded wrong or an error.

Right... I mean the article should reference that Butler made the Sweet 16 back in 2003, so I don't want to overlook that accomplishment before Milwaukee's run.
Sorry for the mix up.

So yes a good team can lose to another good team three times in the same season.

CC Sabathia's first home game as a Brewer was deafening at times.
