Most Shocking NCAA Tourney Ever?

This year’s annual NCAA tournament is easily one of the weirdest ones the sport has ever seen. The biggest shockers this year are Wichita State going down in the Round of 32, the Dayton Flyers and the Tennessee Volunteers in the Sweet 16, and Duke going down in the first round to Mercer. In fact, this bracket is so weird, that no one has a perfect bracket anymore, and the billion dollars will not be won. Multiple upsets have happened, such as Kentucky beating Wichita State, the Dayton Flyers beating Ohio State and Syracuse, the Blue Devils getting beat by Mercer, North Dakota State winning over Oklahoma, and Stephen F. Austin over Virginia Commonwealth (VCU). First, we will talk about Wichita State-- talk about a Shocker! Kentucky is young, inexperienced, and cocky, but they have talent, and they can play a basketball game. This one came down to the final seconds, where the Shockers attempted a three as time expired, but couldn’t get it to go, making Kentucky the winners by two points. Dayton may be the biggest shocker this tourney, as they have beaten both Syracuse and Ohio State, and play the easiest team they have so far, Stanford, in the sweet sixteen. These have truly shocked the NCAA world, and many others.
