You get it – cause they are the Flames! And because they did not miss a shot down the stretch as the #12 seed won their first ever NCAA Tournament victory 80-76 against Mississippi State. Caleb Homesley scored 30 points and Lovell Cabbil Jr added 16 points including a huge three pointer with 1:21 to give the Flames a 2 point lead that they would never give up.
And so we now have three 12 seeds who won this year (and the fourth one lost by 1 point in heart-breaking fashion). Look out for Cinderella – she wants to stick around at the Dance!
