Lehigh, a 15 seed, played an outstanding game to beat 2 seed Duke, who couldn't be bothered to show up and play like there was anything special on the line. A 15 had only beaten a 2 four times until today, when first Norfolk State and then Lehigh got it done.
But that's not all.
Ohio, a 13 seed, beat 4 seed Michigan.
Sometimes you have to wait for the mayhem. Eventually, it shows up.
Brackets busted.
Duke has such a storied history in the NCAA that I think, sometimes, their kids believe they have an automatic bid to the final four. Coach K has his hands full trying to keep them focused on how hard it really is to get there. Oh well, there's always next year...for those who don opt out for the NBA.
Cherie: I do love an upset, but not when it knocks one of my teams out.
Duke: I think everyone in the sport treats Duke that way. I thought all season that they were more like a 3 seed. Wishful thinking put them on the 2 line, and they demonstrated in yesterday's game exactly why that was the wrong seed. Congrats to Lehigh, who deserved to advance.
Sorry about your brackets, but everybody loves the Cinderella story. :)
