    Up 17 points late in the first half, Saint Louis only intensified the pressure. Never a time to let up against No. 9 Butler.

    "We were just thinking, 'Step on it. Make the lead go bigger,' " guard Jordair Jett said. "That's how we play."

    Jett matched his career best with 19 points in 23 minutes, but the reserve realized the school's biggest upset in nine years was decided on the other end of the court. Butler was hounded into a season-worst 23 turnovers in Saint Louis' 75-58 victory Thursday night that ended with fans storming the court to celebrate.
