The #14 seeds really put on a show today. Looked like Davidson was going to pull off the upset earlier in the day – crushed by a last second layup. But Harvard would not be stopped. The Crimson held off #3 New Mexico to win their first tournament game in school history. Fantastic victory for Harvard.
The other big upsets were #12 seeds Oregon and California. And not to take any credit away from the two Pac 12 schools, but I would also argue that Oregon never should have been a 12 seed – and probably neither should have California….
Congratulations to Dave Zimmerman and Stacy Dooms – our current leaders. Both Dave and Stacy got 15 of the 16 games correct – only missing the Harvard game. Also, congratulations to our early leader of the Upset Pool – Rick Flynn. Rick got 13 games correct, but those included all three of the double digit upsets that happened today.
Good luck to everyone in Stomping the Lunatic!!!!!!
