If Ohio beats Georgetown, I would vote this game as the biggest shocker of the first round (assuming no 15 or 16 seeds pull off an upset). As much as an upset it would’ve been if Robert Morris beat Villanova, Villanova was overseeded and did not have the statistics to justify their elite status. Georgetown, however, while inconsistent, has been punishingly awesome at times this season, and had good overall efficiency stats. And while Murray State was an upset, nobody believed in Vanderbilt (ahem, I mean, aside from Loyette).
In general, I like upsets, even if it means a hit against my bracket. But not when it’s a blowout!

Go Bobcats! This hurts my bracket . . . but I don’t care!!
My pastor’s family are Georgetown fans. They shall hear about this. As will the Duke fans in church! (Duke fans for no good reason, too.)
