    I figured one day a 16 seed could upset a 1 seed and steal a game. But to embarrass them by 20 points is mind blowing. UMBC was in complete control

    Whoever picked this on their bracket is in possession of the time stone
  • Virginia allowed an average of 53 points per game this season. They allowed 53 points in the second half against UMBC.

    Virginia, the #1 team in the nation nearly the entire season, the team that was heavily favored to win it all, gets creamed by the 16 seed in the first round by 20 points. This game just proved that anything can happen.
  • Its bad enough a 1 seed lost to a 16 seed. Even worse cause its not like it was a close game, it was a complete blowout
  • @jujubean8308
    Kevin Durant is considering joining UMBC. He wants to wait and see if they win it all first.

    Fun fact: UMBC's Jairus Lyles parents are both UVA grads !!

    ESPN: what if I told you.... every dog has his day.
  • My favorite call from this game, one that captures this whole game is when the score is 58-44 and Virginia throws the ball away and the announcer says “what has happened to Virginia?” and then UMBC goes down and drains a three.

    I will never forget watching this game. I literally couldn't believe what I was seeing. Any other game this lopsided I would have turned the TV off. It was like I just couldn't fathom that a 16 seed was blowing out a 1 seed. It seemed like any minute UVA would go on a run and come back. But every single time Virginia scored, UMBC would just got a 3. Incredible. It wasn't until like 4 minutes left that I realized it was really happening.

    UMBC played their hearts out they deserved to win this game, anything is possible as long as you believe

    Virginia took a harder L than the Falcons in Super Bowl 51
