Is there something missing with in this story? Crazy mis-matches? Injuries, suspensions, extenuating factors? ...or is VCU just overrated?

Nope, it's simple - UT sucks and is overrated according to some posters.

Not an explanation. It does nothing to explain how Toledo dominates a team that nearly beat a team ths t is pounding a team that beat Toledo.

Actually I thought both VCU and UT played extremely well against each other except for the final 3 minutes when UT let it get away from them. Likewise UT essentially ran Bucknell out of the gym tonight building up a 40 point lead until Coach K called off the dogs a bit.

So is not UT that is playing Jekyll and Hyde here----it may be Bucknell or VCU or perhaps even Villanova but you can't fault UT on this one.

VCU played UT on their home court. The VCU-Villanova game was at the Net's Barclay's Center in Brooklyn. Big dif not having that partisan home court advantage. There's no place like home.

Like Jerry Reed sang:

We're talking about the same Villanova team that's ranked #12?

The same Villanova that won 29 games and were awarded with #2 seed in the tournament?

Maybe, just maybe, an extremely talented Villanova team caught VCU on an off night.

In the absence of any player injuries or traumas I guess that the rationale of any or all three of the previous posts collective could help explain the apparent "discrepancy"---they all have merit. The ball does bounce up and down.

Note to "Mr. B."----to take your Jerry Reed theme a bit further, you might say "Villanova got the gold mine and VCU got the shaft". 03-wink

Also Villanova has been a basketball power for quite some time while VCU is a relatively newbie to the scene.

You can't be overrated, if you are not rated.

Although after that stinker of a game against Detroit, I'm tempted to say it.
