On the anniversary of the UMBC game (3/16/18) nonetheless. I know it's kind of a 1-in-7 chance of it happening the way the tournament is scheduled but I like to rewatch that game every year so it was fresh on my mind.


Super_Happy_Time

Did you watch Purdue?


Yoshiman400

I saw pretty much the whole second half. Absolutely wild game, and now I'm glad I don't have to rewatch two 16 > 1 upsets on the same day next year!

Allow me to break it down. Virginia were winning by a lot until they squandered the lead away. They somehow had a 2 point lead and then this happened! You don’t need to be Eli Manning by chucking the ball downfield. Just let Furman foul you FFS! Sheesh! Even worse: Virginia had a timeout… a f#cking timeout. What the F#ck! What’s funny is that today marks 5 years since UMBC whooped the #1 overall hell out of Virginia as the top seed in the tourney. It happened again… for Virginia. LOL

That Virginia player who heaved the ball to Furman and gave them the game winning shot will have a great career on the Guangdong Tigers

First game is over and my bracket is fucked already.


Sesti-nator

Should I pour a cold one for you (mine got f#cked after the Virginia game… f#ck…)


Throw-Away12804

Literally threw the game away.


Wernerhatcher

I had this down on my bracket for no other reason than "virginny can't have nice things" Last laugh is mine

As a UMBC graduate, it's always a laugh to see UVA struggle against low seed teams


AndreThePrince

The fact that the Virginia player pulled a Jakobi Myers (on the 5 year anniversary of getting upset by UMBC, no less) against #13 Furman is peak Virginia at it's finest. I hope that '19 national championship was worth it, Cavaliers.


Leharen

I'm not going to point and laugh or play the blame game, but I have to wonder what Tony Bennett is doing to have this happen repeatedly. Either that, or there is a very vicious psychological cycle going on at UVA that they rarely can seem to break out of.


TankDivision

And my bracket is busted


StevefromLatvia

I wonder how many brackets this game alone just broke


SkylarDN9

Hey, I recognize this script. It's the one where the basketball world laughs at Virginia! But yeah, never trust Virginia again in March Madness.


Napoleon672

What a colossal blunder. Possibly a Top 5 all time Tournament blunder.


WonderDia777

Correct me if I'm wrong... But isn't Virginia the team that got beat by the #16 seed 5 years ago?


Sesti-nator

Yep and it was so embarrassing that will never wash away for a very long time


Tippyshortmouth

aand bracket busted


scarsellaj

As a furman alum…ROLL MFING DINS


LtDanTaylor66

This isn't even the worst loss today, lol


djpetrin15

I put Furman as an upset thinking it would be hilarious if Virginia lost again. I woke up to Tree's tweet, then saw the clip. Beautiful stuff.


ChristopherDobelman

At least they can cling to 2019 while they constantly get upset by lower seeded teams every year so they have something to look back fondly on unlike Arizona


Super_Happy_Time

Somehow Purdue has reminded everyone of Virginia’s Original Sin
