Final from Philly. St. Peter's is the first 15 seed to make it to the elite 8. Hey maybe the Kentucky loss last week may not be as bad as we thought.?

Saint Peter's going to the  Elite Eight.

At this point I truly am rooting for Saint Peters. They are obviously much better than what they were seeded! They play great defense, execute on offense when it matters, and make free throws. They are very impressive! 

No shame in losing to an elite 8 team ?

Free Throws wins you big games.

Obviously Kentucky could’ve done so much with this draw….

But seriously, it does get a slight bit easier with each win they get. They’ve caught lightning in a bottle. 

No surprised that the selection committee would give Kentucky the best 15 seed of all time lol jk.

This is awesome! I loved how the players came over and interrupted Coach Holloway's interview.

St. Peter's is so solid in every part of the game. They run offense better than any team in the tournament.

How in the world was Purdue -13.5 favorites. Seemed like easy money.

No freakin' way!

They execute so well on offense. However, same on the defensive end. Murray State and Purdue are two of the best offenses in basketball and they completely shut both teams offenses down holding them both to 64 or less. 
 

I really like how in all three games they basically play hard in your face man to man defense all game. Then in all 3 games in the last 3 minutes they switch to that matchup zone defense, and have completely confused all three teams offenses at the end. So impressive. 

Defenses are trumping offenses.

Someone in Vegas should be fired.  It's not like they hadn't played anyone good prior to tonight's match up.

You could tell five minutes into the game  Purdue wanted no part of the battle they were in store for.

Keep it close then the Mortal Kombat finishing move is the late switch to the zone. It’s crazy how impactful it is. Teams don’t know how to adjust.
