A lot of these teams feature guys in their mid 20s.

Smart basketball and good shooting leads to some upsets. They're not winning 6 games in a row though

I'd like to petition to maybe change it to "shake the bed" in honor of the Mormons soaking. Google it if you don't know.

So true. As George Allen said once, there is no substitute for experience. The reason these mid major teams aren't regarded higher is the conferences they play in...who have experienced veterans starting as well.
SDSU started 4 seniors last year and replaced them this year in the starting lineup with 3. Duke, UK, UNC used to dominate basketball because they had veterans starting, Now, they are lucky if they have a junior in the starting 5. A team is exactly that. A group of guys accustomed to playing with each other and know their assignments.

The school with older Players have better fundamentals in all aspects of the game.

It’s really interesting to see fundamentals vs talent.

Every year there are a couple of experienced, fundamentally sound yet outmanned teams that upset “better” teams. You know it is going to happen. Predicting who it will be is a bit tougher.

College of Charleston was the trendy pick for the 4/13 upset. But they are getting their doors blown off. Instead it was the two sleeper picks to make it to the elite eight or farther that got knocked out.
