Virginia was not really rewarded for a great season and being rated number one. Seated with AZ and KY.

USC and ND out?

Yea a bit of a joke.

Could this be the night that a 16 seed knocks out the overall number 1 seed?

Up by 16 with 11 minutes left.

4:42 left and up by 14. This could be epic.

I guess I have to cop to the fact that my Arizona Wildcats were outplayed in every phase of the game by 13 seed Buffalo. Crap

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Not just a #1 but the number one of the whole tournament.

I figured it would happen once day, but thought it would be a fluke last second shot not a blow out.

Virginia just looks foolish!

I guess Arizona’s loss isn’t so striking anymore

. Wow

ETA: I imagine there were even people in the eastern third of the country going, “Who’s UMBC?!?”

Syracuse beats Arizona State and now TCU. And who said the 'Cuse shouldn't be in the tourney?

Michigan State up next and will be a formidable challenge. Still....

Well, that's not a problem now, since Arizona lost by 21......Oh, wait.....
At least you can be comforted by the fact that UVA saved face by only losing by 20.

These kids earned their in, and they have subsequently proven it. But I must admit, I will be quite surprised if the streak continues tomorrow.
