The Butler Bulldogs face the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders on Saturday, March 18 in Milwaukee, WI. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
The Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders were one of just six lower-seeded teams to advance to the Second Round of March Madness. However, they’ve proven they may be better than even that win showed. They’ll have a great chance to put that to the test as they face the Butler Bulldogs in Milwaukee, WI next in the 2017 NCAA Tournament.
Giddy Potts, JaCorey Williams and Reggie Upshaw all returned this year for Middle Tennessee after they upset Michigan State in March Madness one year ago. Subsequently, they went on to win 30 games in the regular season and looked the part in beating No. 5-seed Minnesota. Butler will be a tougher opponent, but the Blue Raiders have prove they won’t back down and will give the Bulldogs a fight.
As such, Butler will need their star in Kelan Martin to run the show. Yes, the secondary contributors will have to step up as well. However, Martin will likely be the best player on the floor and needs to lead his team as such to avoid getting upset.
This Second Round game out of the South Region will be broadcast on TBS on Saturday. Fans can live stream the game online or through the app through March Madness Live. For unlimited streaming, all you need to do is log in using a cable or satellite subscription. However, there are three free hours of daily streaming available.
