Sure they busted up my bracket a little bit by taking out Georgetown in the 1st round. But they also proved me right that Purdue DID NOT deserve a #3 seed in this tournament (check the comments in this post for a little humor).
But now VCU is the darling of the tournament and the new feel-good story. There has to be one every year, and after getting summarily bashed for even being in the play-in game the Rams have turned the tide in their favor. The public loves a good underdog story, and it doesn't get much more underdog than VCU.
To celebrate VCU's unlikely run to the Sweet Sixteen, may I present Sarah. An adorable Rams cheerleader that I have no doubt is absolutely ecstatic about VCU's success.
