Most memorable for me was George Mason.
The back to back finals for Butler was an incredible feat, just wish they could've taken one.
I also loved watching Burke light it up for Michigan a couple years back.

I know it's a 'homer' pick, but LSU's '86 run as an 11 Seed was pretty unreal

Illinois in 2005. I know they were #1 from the beating they gave Chris Paul and Wake Forest in the B1G/ACC challenge on. The comeback win against Arizona in the Elite 8 when down 15 with 4 to play was the best finish I have ever seen.
Cinderella style I will say FGCU.

it was stunning, no one gave them a real shot. Houston in their own right had a unreal run in that tourney. They literally ran other teams off the court...until Valvano

What Steph Curry did in the NCAA tournament deserves some sort of honorable mention.
40 vs Gonzaga
33 vs. Wisconsin

Seeing Jimmy V run around the court looking for somebody to hug is one of the greatest moments in sports history.

Bama made an elite 8 that made me happy. That was about a decade ago though. Seems like much longer.
You mean the 1 and only elite 8 run in bama basketball history?

I credit this game to REALLY getting me into college basketball. I was at Bryce Drew's buzzer beater and saw it in person in 1998, and I watched Weber State beat North Carolina the next year, but I was just a casual NCAA tournament viewer those two years.
That St. Bonaventure game is what really got me into college basketball as a whole, the regular season as well as wanting to watch every damn game of the NCAA tournament and all.

I'm pretty young, but this was the best college team I've ever seen live. They came to the Breslin center and absolutely murdered a msu team that went to the final four

Kent State's 2002 miracle run to the Elite Eight. They beat Oklahoma State in the first round, walloped a really good #2 seed Alabama in the second round, beat #3 seed Pitt in the Sweet 16 in a thrilling OT game, and lost to Indiana in the Elite Eight because they shot an unreal 15/19 from 3pt land. On any other day, Kent State was playing well enough to beat Indiana and get to the Final Four. I lived in Kent at the time, and that tourney run captivated the entire town. It was the first national publicity Kent State really got since the national guard shot the students in 1970.

I remember the entire run, and specifically the OT game vs. Pitt and Kent State had some really bad calls they had to overcome there to win
The Indiana game was unreal. I was only 13 or 14 at the time and thought Indiana was cheating somehow because they made I think their first 10 three point field goal attempts that game.

That was a pretty good Pitt team, but that was Antonio Gates's day.
Against Indiana, Tom Coverdale and Dane Fife just couldn't miss. That one hurt to watch.

Florida Gulf Coast beat two extremely overrated teams.
George Mason and it's not close. Beat Michigan State, UNC, and UConn to get to the Final Four. And UConn was loaded.
Butler's second run was amazing.
