The Top Ten

1 First Time (16) beats a (1)

This years tourney has been the most unpredictable yet, and the fact Virginia was the one to lose to a #16 is absolutely stunning, and I can't believe Tony Bennett is not out already after that loss I don't think they can ever recover from that embarrassment.

Knocking off the over-all (1) is hard to do in any tournament. Probably broke 80% of all brackets, because most probably picked Virginia to win it all

2 First Time a (9) plays (11)

With Kentucky being the last “decent” team in the South region to fall we end up with K-State and Loyola Chicago to battle for a spot in the final four. Just like everyone predicted!
