"The Bilastrator doesn't like to brag. Yet, by now, as a conscious being on this planet, you know that The Bilas Index is the preeminent, reliable and most universally respected indicator and compilation of basketball knowledge and judgment known to humankind. As such, it serves as much more than a guide or a road map to this men's college basketball season -- it is a pinpoint GPS for the year."
"Why is The Bilas Index indispensable for any basketball fan or observer? It is quite simple and self-evident. While some mistakenly rely upon a strict analytics approach and others mistakenly rely upon a weekly vote among the unwashed masses, The Bilas Index is based upon the most powerful and consequential instrument of basketball wisdom and judgment the game has ever known ... the gray matter of The Bilastrator himself. The Bilastrator's immense and powerful brain is superior in processing basketball performance, potential and ability than any other analytical tool ever imagined."
"To be clear, providing such context to these picks is not bragging. It is simply a recitation of unimpeachable fact. Last season, The Bilastrator dominated the NCAA tournament prediction field, as per usual. After taking intense criticism from the uninformed on Selection Sunday, The Bilastrator correctly predicted the four Final Four teams, the two title game participants and the national champion. In addition, The Bilastrator predicted seven of the Elite Eight teams. You're welcome, America."
The Bilas Index is described as the preeminent, reliable and universally respected indicator and compilation of college basketball knowledge and judgment. The Index serves as more than a guide or road map and is characterized as a pinpoint GPS for the season. The Index favors human judgment over strict analytics and weekly popular voting, asserting superiority through the Bilastrator's cognitive processing. Prior predictive success is cited, including correct Final Four teams, title game participants and the national champion, plus seven Elite Eight teams. Periodic updates to the Index are promised to guide observers. Last season's national champion returns the nation's best and toughest forecourts.
