Did he make a FT and a 3 pointer ?

Actually he did. He made 3 treys not counting the half-court shot and 2 free throws.

Now it's 3 P5 teams (all with lower or equal seeds) that the MVC has taken out.

Yeah, the Valley is the #13 conference in the nation. Too bad the #7 - 12 conferences didn't show the same level of ability to win big games.

Big Winners: ACC 6-1, Big East 4-1, and MVC 3-0

Big Losers: Pac-12 2-5, AAC 1-3, and Big 12-2 3-4

Might want to check me on this.

Thanks to the panic stricken people over at phog.net.

Wow, Just WOW!!!

Either UNI or Stephen F. Austin is going to the Sweet 16.

Huh? Are you making a prediction because it certainly isn't a fact?

According to 3G all 3 had lower seeds. Since Vandy whore white and the Shocks Black they were 11A and the Shocks were 11B.

Once again the big 12 flops. Only KU is even worth talking about.

[Rosewood]

What was with the UNI Kaboom signs? Isn't that the B team mascot for the Bradley Braves?

Once again the big 12 flops. Only KU is even worth talking about.

Big 12: 3 wins, 7 teams
MVC: 3 wins, 2 teams

From the Texas 247 board:

HoustonHorns74*said... (original post)How in the hell do you lose to a team with 4 white guys? How embarrassing. A lot of guys going to be ashamed to go back to the hood.

I heard Baylor's Taurean Prince was able to explain this. You make 2 point shots, and 3 point shots and free throws worth 1 point each. You add them up. The team with the most points wins. UNI had the most points.

Obviously, this particulay poster has great difficulty counting:

So, the UNI radio announcer dropped the line "trying to make them the Short Horns". So cheesy, but hilarious.

A little non sequitur, does anyone have a tally on how many sofas were burnt in Morgantown?

[BOBB]

How did Illinois State do in their NCAA game?

M.V.C.!!!!!

[ACW]

13 1st-round upsets: ties 2001 for the record.
10 double-digit seeds: new record.
8 wins by 11-seeds or lower (according to Stewart Mandel, the NCAA record book only includes these as "true" upsets): new record (and 1/3 of all 11-16 seeds; 40% if you toss out the 16s).
