Day Two of Championship Week rolls out with three more tourney finals.  Butler-Milwaukee is perhaps the most interesting of the three, as a win by Butler eliminates the reserved seat Milwaukee had for winning the regular season conference title.  Butler wins, and another at-large spot opens up.  In other words, Colorado and Alabama fans are liking themselves some Shelvin Mack and Matt Howard right about now.

Meanwhile, on ESPN3, if Princeton wins at Penn, they'll go into a playoff with Harvard this weekend for the Ivy title.
