They're not "for real" any more than any other cinderella team is or was "for real." George Mason was for real until they weren't. Same goes for VCU. All it takes is one buzzsaw like Florida to end that great run and make FGCU mortal again.

Until that time comes, I'm going to sit back and enjoy watching them play, because they certainly are entertaining. Maybe they'll get past Florida, and maybe they won't. But I'm not going to put any heartfelt stock or give them a legitimate shot at running the table or even making it to the Final Four. Not yet, any way.
Hypothetically, Lets say FGSU beats Florida by double digits. What % do you give them Going to the Championship game.
