Paint two W's on my cheeks!
Cinderella lives in Tampa. It was the perfect ending for a crazy day in Tampa, the bracket-busting town that should be called Upset City after Friday’s opening round. It was the first site in NCAA history to have four 12 or lower seeds win. In fact, no other place had even had two in one day. 12th-seeded Villanova gave this NCAA tournament pod its fourth upset in as many games with a 75-69 victory over No. 5 seed Clemson in the first round of the Midwest Region on Friday night.
First, No. 12 seed Western Kentucky knocked off fifth-seeded Drake in overtime with a desperation 26-footer at the buzzer. Then, 13th-seeded San Diego upended No. 4 seed Connecticut, hitting a long jumper with 1.2 seconds left in overtime. And No. 13 seed Siena led from the start to send fourth-seeded Vanderbilt home earlier than expected. I guess it would have been worth the $90 to sit in the rafters to watch this.
