Northern Iowa. They have some epic buzzer beater wins in the NCAA tourney. They beat overall No. 1 seed Kansas as a 9 seed in 2010 when Ari Farokhmanesh hit a long 3 at the horn (he’s now coach at Colorado State).

They also accomplished the worst meltdown in NCAA tournament history when they lost to Texas A&M in 2016 after leading 69-57 with 35 seconds left.

Fun to watch the underdogs in March Madness.

I think about this game constantly whenever we have a ~10 point lead with minute left

As a youth, I’d end up rooting for UK in the tourney because they were the only SEC team left. I loved some of those 90s teams.

I enjoyed watching Princeton when Pete Carril was coaching. They actually played the game of basketball. They were a team no one wanted to play in the first round of the dance.

It's like they had a coach/mascot combo. He looked like an owl

I remind people of that when I'm told my opinion of Cal being a scumbag has something to do with him at UK.

I love to watch Tennessee lose. And Auburn was fun last year too.
