lol, no not at all, I have no horse in this race. It's just not an if/then argument, that's all, it's a discussion of merit. Bilas even said in his rant that it was entirely possible VCU was capable of winning, which, as we saw, they clearly were, but that there were other teams that were more deserving, and he had a compelling case. I don't think his intention was to slam VCU as much as it was to criticize the committee that put the field together. All people heard was "rant, rant, rant, VCU, rant, rant."
"rant rant how dare little guy steal an at large from a middling large conference team ran rant" is what I heard
