Hates who got in and who didn't. Digger seems pissed as well.
They all feel there is no way VCU and UAB should be there.
Bilas is seriously pissed.
Jay is FIRED UP
"Harvard Got Jobbed" - Jay Bilas
Even Vitale can't believe it and he is a puppet.
Good to listen to college analysts and not those NBA TNT guys. They were terrible.
The NCAA committee has to explain some of these picks... I am still shocked we were an 11 seed.

Seriously! Apparently Sir Charles thinks there are two 1 seeds, three 2 seeds, two 3 seeds, and 26 teams overall with all of his that team didn't deserve to be in drivel.
"These are horrible selections. There needs to be basketball people on the committee" - Bilas
"Do people on this committee know if the ball is round?" - Bilas

Not a huge Vitale fan, but he just had a hilarious line.
Said "You put Colorado's resume up against VCU and UAB and it's like a beauty contest with Roseanne Barr vs. Scarlett Johanson."
I almost fell out of my chair laughing!
Hubert is pissed at George Mason getting an 8 seed with no good wins.
Haha Bilas just snapped again
Agree with Bilas. There are only two people on the Committee that coached College ball.
I am sure that a Committee representative will soon be interviewed by the ESPN crew. I feel for that guy.
"They talk about teams passing the eye test. This doesn't even pass the laugh test." - Bilas
Gotlieb now hating on Clemson for not having a good win and getting in.
Bilas hates Villanova as a 9 seed.
Someone better put out an APB on Seth Greenberg. He's just gotta be livid over this year.
Get ready for the fireworks boys. Gene Smith to be interviewed by the ESPN crew.

I guess they didn't want to rock the boat, because they jusy lobbed him a few softballs and let him go. Would've loved to see Bilas challenge him.

Rosanne is like top 5 worst "celebrities" (possibly humans as long as we don't count totalitarian dictators) on the face of the Earth. I'm an instant fan of anyone ripping on her. Well done Dickie V.
Should've just let the octopus in Germany or Puxsatawny Phil decide.

According to Wikipedia, she's also an incest survivor... it just gets funnier (and truer)
Is incest often fatal?
My friend from Colorado called me and his first friendly jab was: "I'm pissed at you because your alma mater got a spot Colorado should have gotten." After scratching my head, I proceeded to tell him MU wasn't one of the last four in. Those teams are playing in Dayton. He said he knew ESPN was talking about VCU and UAB being unworthy but how could they really give bids to 11 BE teams. I fired back some general stats about how tough the conference is. Any of you stat guys have some more ammo for me? It's great to get your buddies all worked up! March madness is here!
Of our 14 losses, only 2 came to teams outside the top 35 RPI. None of our losses were to teams outside the top 100. Only one loss came to a team not in the field of 68. We have 5 wins over teams in the top 25 RPI. Also, we played a non-con schedule that was much better than 325.
While Colorado deserved to be in, it wasn't at our expense.

If he wants to make that argument, make sure he's just as upset about Penn St & MSU (& Illinois & Michigan) being included. 7/11 isn't that much different than 11/16. 9-9 in the Big 10 is not nearly the accomplishment 9-9 in the Big East is this year or any year.

Say something like "if Colorado wants the committee's attention, they should play in a major conference."

Assuming it was consensual, yes.
