02/27/2007 - Madison, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Wisconsin junior forward Brian Butch is expected to be out 4-to-6 weeks due to a dislocation with an associated fracture of his right elbow.
Butch suffered the injury in the first half of Sunday's 49-48 loss at Ohio State, but because of the recovery time Butch's season is likely over.
"I'd like to thank all the fans that have expressed their concern with my condition and let them know that I will work hard to get back on the court as soon as I can," Butch said. "I will continue to support my teammates and hope to contribute any way I can, whether as a cheerleader or a voice of experience on the bench. I have all the confidence that my teammates can continue the success that we have started."
Butch started 29 game for the Badgers this season, ranking third on the team in scoring at 8.8 points per game. He was also leading the team in rebounding at 5.9 per contest.
"We know how tough it will be for Brian to have to sit out but we also know the type of person he is and how hard he will work to get back," Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan said. "For Brian to average close to 10 points and six rebounds a game for the last two years is a good indication of how steady a contributor he has been to our program. We will miss his energy and enthusiasm on the court, but know he will still give us those things in the locker room and on the bench."
The Badgers were the top-ranked team going into last week before losses to Michigan State and the Buckeyes. Wisconsin is now 26-4 and ranked fourth in the latest Associated Press poll.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
