![]() ![]() ![]() Hoops at Madison Square Garden always brings out celebrities-for a Knicks home game, it’s always, like, Ben Stiller, the guy who played Bobby Bacala on The Sopranos, and whoever was the lead guest on The Tonight Show last night. Finally, the tournament has delivered a whole month of madness. This tournament not only brought some of the greatest first-round upsets ever, but schools and conferences that are historically overlooked are battling it out as we head toward the Final Four. 2 Texas, which is being led by interim head coach Rodney Terry after firing its head coach in January the Longhorns’ last Elite Eight appearance was in 2008.įor all the talk about upsets and Cinderellas, what typically happens in the tourney is an opening weekend of excitement when the East State Tech Sasquatches pull an upset on a last-second buzzer-beater before the same blue-blood programs from the same power conferences take over during the Sweet 16 and end up cutting down the nets when the whole thing is over. Miami hadn’t reached the Elite Eight before doing so last year. Roughly half the teams that are still alive have no history of any kind on this stage: We have two first-time Elite Eight participants in San Diego State and Florida Atlantic-the Aztecs are the first team from the entire Mountain West Conference to ever make it this far-as well as a Creighton squad, which had only reached the Elite Eight in 1941, before anybody called it the Elite Eight, because there were only eight teams in the field to begin with and also because nobody really talked about the NCAA basketball tournament because it was 1941 and nobody had TVs because it was 1941.

We’re more likely to get an NCAA title game with two 1-seeds (seven times since 1985), guaranteeing a chalk champion, than we are to get a Final Four with zero 1-seeds (just three times since 1985).īut the reign of the highly ranked is over. Even as college basketball has entered its Upset Era, 1-seeds have thrived: 12 of the last 15 national champs were 1-seeds, including the last five. From the introduction of the 64-team bracket for the men’s tournament in 1985, 24 out of 37 national champions and exactly half of the 74 title game participants have been 1-seeds. ![]() Nobody is better at filling out a bracket than the NCAA selection committee, as 1-seeds have historically outperformed everybody else in the tourney.
