If we were to use your arguments alone, there would be several teams equally deserving of the #2, if not more deserving.

What about a team that beat a #5, #2 and the overall #1 and only lost to the champion? (No I don't think they're 2nd best ether but more so than Butler).

What about another team that beat another #4 and a #1 and lost to UConn? They have a good argument too.

Butler was a lot better last year. They overachieved this year. There are many arguments that could be made for at least 4-5 teams that are more deserving..
Camron, do you work for the BCS?

Butler proved it on the court. They won the darn games, until the final one. The other teams didn't. They are a deserving #2.
