No wins for 12 seeds this year.  That in itself is kinda crazy.  What a first round!

I'm also 23/32.  14/16 Sweet 16 teams left.  Had UVA losing to Arizona and, obviously, Zona winning it all.

Did okay so far in a seed pool that I'm in, but my bracket is basically trash thanks to Sean Miller.

There have been, what, 2 #15 seeds to advance?

First #16 to win is DEFINITELY historic.

Historic? Yes. 

Greatest/biggest upset in college basketball history? No. 

Chaminade beat Ralph Sampson and Virginia. Chaminade was part of the NAIA.

At this point I want to see Kentucky, Tennessee and Cincy lose so no one else can earn points in that region.

2 of the 3 lost in play-in games and didn’t even make the actual first round

Pac-12 is hilariously bad (0-3, with two being play-in game losses). ACC is 6-4 (1-0 play-in, 5-4 round one) and suffered the first ever loss by a #1 in the first round.

Meanwhile, the MAC is 1-0. SUCK IT HATERS!!!!

That MSU one was probably on par to this one. Michigan State was the heavy title favorite that year, and Middle Tennessee ran them out of the gym

Alabama is gonna give Nova fits today. I don’t think they’ll win, but it’s gonna be a battle.
