Lunardi has us in the next four out in his latest Bracketology. Must have
killed him to put an ACC team as the overall No. 1, but he had no choice as he essentially said so in his write-up. And of course, he now has 11 SEC teams in to lead all conferences. Prior to conference play, wasn't the SEC ranked fourth out of the Power 4 conferences in the power ratings? And now magically they are the best conference according to Lunardi/ESPN. The last four byes just happen to belong to SEC/Big Ten schools. The SEC/Big Ten media bias has gotten to be so blatantly obvious, it's maddening.

Without 4-0 in OT games, VT wouldn't be close.
