If you watched college basketball last night, you likely had the unfortunate event of seeing Virginia have one of the worst offensive performances since the sport stopped using peach baskets. They lost to Colorado State 67-42 in a game that was not a close as the score might indicate. And perhaps the only people more frustrated than Virginia fans are anyone at Oklahoma, Seton Hall, and Indiana State. Those schools were likely the first three not picked in the field of 68 to play in the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, where Virginia was definitely one of the last at large teams selected, much to the chagrin of schools with better analytics and resumes and all the other alleged criteria used by the selection committee to choose the field. So when Virginia played like a YMCA rec team after a night of heavy drinking, I’m sure all those on the outside looking in said some profanity laden version of “I told you.”
