Credit goes to coach Brandon Miller and the whole team for its most efficient offensive performance following a five-game stretch of scoring less than a point per possession.</p>
<p class="pgh-paragraph" id="paragraph2" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 1em; font-family: 'Mercury SSm A', 'Mercury SSm B', Georgia, serif; line-height: 24px; color: #292929; font-size: 16px;"><b style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box;">Butler Breakdown (Player Grades)-</b></p>

The Freshman scored nine of Butler's first 15 points to put the Bulldogs ahead early. He cooled off the rest of the game and finished with just three rebounds in 30 minutes on the floor, but showed that he deserves to be in the starting lineup with the energy he brought from the tip.</p>
<p class="pgh-paragraph" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 1em; font-family: 'Mercury SSm A', 'Mercury SSm B', Georgia, serif; line-height: 24px; color: #292929; font-size: 16px;"><b>Erik Fromm (C)</b>, the man Chrabascz replaced, wasn't bad off the bench but didn't provide much offensively either. He made his only shot attempt, a three, in 17 minutes and was an improved force on the glass. Four rebounds marked his best performance in four games and was a needed improvement after Butler was walloped on the boards against St. John's.</p>
<p class="pgh-paragraph" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 1em; font-family: 'Mercury SSm A', 'Mercury SSm B', Georgia, serif; line-height: 24px; color: #292929; font-size: 16px;"><b>Alex Barlow (C+) </b>is another guy who really stepped his rebounding game up, with eight. I think that's an indication of how much rebounding is a factor of effort. Barlow's the smallest guy on the roster, but his defensive rebound percentage is better than Marshall, Fromm, or Chrabascz (all of whom have 7-9 inches on him). Props to Barlow for staying out of foul trouble as well. His lower grade is a result of shooting one for six from the floor, his fourth bad performance in a row. Everybody has cold streaks, but its looking more like Barlow just isn't the viable shooter many hoped he could turn into after big games against Oklahoma State and LSU.</p>
<p class="pgh-paragraph" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 1em; font-family: 'Mercury SSm A', 'Mercury SSm B', Georgia, serif; line-height: 24px; color: #292929; font-size: 16px;"><b>Kellen Dunham (C-)</b> isn't shooting well either, but his three three-pointers were the most he's had since the double-overtime loss to DePaul. Nine points total, his first single-digit output of Big East play.<b> Marshall (B-)</b> has been a really consistent scorer for Butler throughout this tough Big East stretch. He hit the shot that put the Bulldogs away for good and made six of nine from the floor. He hasn't rebounded or passed the ball much in 2014 but he's second in the league in field goal percentage and Butler would've lost its other games by a lot more without him (small moral victories).</p>
<p class="pgh-paragraph" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 1em; font-family: 'Mercury SSm A', 'Mercury SSm B', Georgia, serif; line-height: 24px; color: #292929; font-size: 16px;"><b>Kameron Woods (C+)</b> brought his typical workmanlike effort with 11 points and eight rebounds. He also added four assists, a block, and a pair of steals to a strong all-around performance. He's the team's worst culprit when it comes to turning the ball over and had four again last night.</p>
<p class="pgh-paragraph" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 1em; font-family: 'Mercury SSm A', 'Mercury SSm B', Georgia, serif; line-height: 24px; color: #292929; font-size: 16px;">With dad in attendance once again, <b>Elijah Brown (B+) </b>played the best we've seen since the Villanova game. 12 points on five of nine shooting, two rebounds, an assist, and a steal. Maybe he's getting some confidence back. All things considered, Butler won this game because its two freshmen made a big impact which should raise hopes moving forward.</p>
<p class="pgh-paragraph" id="paragraph7" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 0px; font-family: 'Mercury SSm A', 'Mercury SSm B', Georgia, serif; line-height: 24px; color: #292929; font-size: 16px;">Butler takes on Marquette next at the Bradley Center. The Golden Eagles are the only other Big East team Butler has beaten this year. Win that one, and maybe we can see the Bulldogs put on a little run to contend for a late NIT bid.</p>

<p>Butler's having a tough time adjusting to the Big East. It doesn't get easier from here.</p> <p>The <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/teams/butler-bulldogs" class="sbn-auto-link">Butler Bulldogs</a> have a problem. Behind their never-ending search for a reliable offense, second-half breakdowns, and inability to stop anybody on defense is a common issue: they've never faced a gauntlet like this before.</p>
<p>The living was easy in the Horizon League. A string of Butler head coaches came and went, but the Bulldog dynasty rolled on to ten regular season titles in fourteen years. Ten <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/march-madness" class="sbn-auto-link">NCAA Tournament</a> appearances in the same timeframe put the program on the map and propelled the Midwest's favorite Cinderella into the same conversation as the big boys. Back-to-back national championship trips mean you're one of the best teams in the country, period.</p>
<p>Then came a quick stop in the Atlantic 10 and a 27 win season that opened the door to Butler's final destination: the Big East. Bright lights, big city, new conference, and tougher challenges.</p>
<p>With Brad Stevens going pro and the team's top returning scorer out for the season, expectations were deservedly tepid at the beginning of the season. However, a 10-2 nonconference slate, with two close losses to top opponents on a neutral floor, raised hopes dramatically for the Butler faithful. This program has slayed giants before, why not in the Big East?</p>

<p>*Regular season only, multiple games against the same opponent are each counted</p>
<p>No cupcakes. In a two-year span, Butler has gone from facing just one top 100 opponent (twice) and having six games against teams outside the top 200 to having just one opponent ranked worse than 87th. Even in the best of circumstances, most programs would fold from that shift.</p>

<p>What about Creighton? The Big East's new top team had a much tougher road to hoe in the Missouri Valley Conference than Butler faced in the Horizon League, but its schedule last season matches up pretty closely with Butler's A-10 opponents. Of course, its always easier to adjust when you have the best player in the country on your roster.</p>
<p>Butler's biggest problem in its new home? Its lack of continuity to past success has seemingly turned a rough stretch of games into a death spiral. Now at 1-7 in the conference without last year's coach or top scorers, the Bulldogs have been dropped into an Olympic pool without first learning how to tread water. In 2012, a good win over Illinois-Chicago could get Kellen Dunham's shooting touch back or help <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/players/123279/khyle-marshall" class="sbn-auto-link">Khyle Marshall</a> focus on crashing the boards a bit more. Last season, games against Forham and Duqesne provided a bit of a respite too. This year there are no guarantees. Once you're down in the Big East, its really hard to claw your way back to the top.</p>

While Khyle Marshall has demonstrated a frustrating tendency for mental timeouts when he's not trying to score, at least he takes care of things with the ball in his hands. Just two Big East players give it up at a lower rate than Marshall (9.0 percent).</p>
