Butler couldn't stay in it until the end this time, and television ratings were down for the national championship game.
Connecticut's defense-dominated 53-41 win Monday on CBS earned an 11.7 fast national rating and 18 share. That's down 18 percent from last year's Duke-Butler final, when the underdog Bulldogs had a chance to win it at the buzzer.
The entire tournament, with every game televised nationally for the first time, averaged a 6.4/14, up seven percent from last season.
