Pacific Falls Short
The 13th-seeded Pacific Tigers fell just short in their effort to knock off 4-seed Boston College. BC is a perennially overrated team that generally folds under pressure in the tournament.
The game was a double-overtime thriller, and was much closer than the eventual 88-76 score indicated. Unfortunately, Pacific didn't execute down the stretch at the end of the first overtime. If they had (they had a six-point lead with two minutes to go), they should have won.
Instead, we'll have to wait for someone else to pull off the first epic upset of the tournament. With Withrop hanging with Tennessee, maybe it will happen soon.
