    They beat a decent Vermont team on the road in that. UMBC is better than a 16, but still crazy

    UMBC is a legit 16 seed, they were not underseeded. They wouldn’t have been in the field if they hadn’t thrown in a last second 3 in the conference final. Fivethirtyeight had them as the 5th worst team in the field pre tournament.

    Penn was way underseeded at 16. Arguably the best team Ever seeded that low.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    Wow! Michigan down by 2 with 3 seconds to go and they hit a three pointer to beat Houston. Just a great college basketball game!

    those FT's that were bricked by Houston shouldn't have counted anyways with all of the lane violations that were made by the FT shooter

    Another great game as Purdue escapes with a win as Butler misses a desperation 3 at the buzzer.

    Wow the South bracket is a mess.

    Kentucky vs K-State or UMBC
    Nevada vs Loyolla.

    Coach Cal couldn't pay for a better road to the final four.
    NDSU to the FBS always. In all ways.

    I disagree with that. They are better than Csu Fullerton and Lipscomb

    The parity makes for an unpredictable tournament. Cincinnati, a #2 seed, loses to Nevada after giving up a 22 point lead in the final 11 minutes!
