IU basketball coach Archie Miller unloaded on NCAA tournament bracketologists -- particularly ESPN's Joe Lunardi -- after the Hoosiers' loss to Wisconsin on Saturday.

In response to a question from IndyStar's Gregg Doyel, Miller said, among other things: "But when you start to go through the bracketology and you listen to the Sesame Street cartoon guys on TV who need clicks … the bottom line is strength of record: Who did you play, what did you beat? If you look at our wins, there's very few teams in the country that can say they have beaten the Florida States, Michigan States, Iowas, the Penn States, who are clearly in the field. So if you are beating six, seven teams in the field, you should be in the field.”

As he left the interview room, Miller made reference to Lunardi, mentioning a "garbage can." That's where Oscar the Grouch lives on "Sesame Street."

Lunardi had an updated bracket late Saturday afternoon. He still had IU among his "last four in."

Lunardi also discussed his agenda for Saturday night: "Meanwhile, I'll be home tonight watching Sesame Street with Archie Miller..."

Doyel:Archie Miller has no use for cartoonish bracketologists

Insider:'We had our chances,' but IU can't finish against Wisconsin

There was plenty of reaction to Miller's comments.
