Oh. My. God.

It is going to happen !!!

We are now at the point where Cavaliers are literally pulling on Retriever pants to keep up.

(16) Maryland-Baltimore County 67
(1) Virginia 48
2nd 2:00

and to think that UMBC didn't win their regular season title. Vermont did.

Bennett should have given up on the full court press and tried to outscore UMBC to get back into it.

UVA wasted all of their energy on the press.

Wow

UMBC. Sharpie.

72-52 with a minute to go

UMBC 53 points in the 2nd half.... WOW.

VIRGINIA LOSES !!!!

UMBC now takes over UVA's #1 bracket.

U
Must
Be
Cinderella

from ESPN:
Virginia: 12-6 record in NCAA Tournament games as a 1 seed is the worst in NCAA Tournament history (min. 10 games)

All Buffalo has to do is beat a 9/16 and a 5 seed to get to the Elite 8

29 years after Princeton came within a whisker of beating Georgetown, it finally happens.

135-1

#2 overall seed.

No, they were the #1 overall seed. Nova was 2, Kansas 3 and X 4.

Upset...Virginia is not a typical 1-seed, I always said that, aside from an overseeded team playing an over underseeded team as we saw with Penn and Kansas, I always said that if a 1/16 upset was going to happen, it would be with a team that didn't have a great offense versus a decent team. UMBC isn't great but better than an RPI 300 team that stole an auto bid.

When Pitt played ETSU, I thought it was the best chance yet. I was wrong.

Just going by what the announcers said.

The announcers told me the P5 was amazing so I believe it.

I liked what someone compared the UMBC 2nd half shooting to- the Villanova title game shooting vs Georgetown back in 1985.. Great comparison...

Tony Bennett should be canned.
