This is why it's so hard to say any high seed team "choked" in the tournament. Norfolk State was a 30% three-point shooting team in the regular season. They shot 10/19 from three today. You could play this game 10 more times and Norfolk State wouldn't shoot 10/19 from three again and Missouri would probably win most of those games by 15-20 points.

In a one loss and you're done scenario, even teams like Norfolk State can get hot and beat a higher seeded team that was a top 5-10 team all year long. And let's be honest, Norfolk State didn't have the athletes and size of your typical 15 seed. Going by the eye test they looked like a 7-12 seed. They were big, athletic, fast, and shot the ball well today.

My bracket is f***ed but I don't care! This is why I love March Madness!!!

Now that is why nothing compares to the first weekend of March Madness.

Thats not a knee-jerk reaction at all.

In short, Mizzou choked.

In all fairness, Miami fans and many ACC followers wouldn't call that a knee-jerk reaction at all.

On another note, the people (such as myself) who picked Florida to beat Mizzou in the next round are smiling right now. lol

yes! that helped me so much.

i have missouri losing to florida in the second round and everyone in my bracket had them atleast going to the elite 8.

though i do have florida going to the final 4, i wouldnt mind if norfolk won. if a 15 seed far then i will enjoy watching.
