Saturday’s match-up in Hinkle Fieldhouse will feature one team that appears utterly lost and another team that is just starting to find itself. The Butler Bulldogs come into the game having won four straight games, including victories over Ohio State and Utah. Meanwhile, Butler’s opponent, the Youngstown State Penguins, have lost five in a row – most recently, a blowout at DePaul.
