This may be the greatest upset in sports history

UVA has what, two losses? The #1 seed in the country just got dismantled by a nobody.
Never again count any team out. No one is safe.

Any time Alabama loses in football is bigger.

I am so glad UVA lost.
I hope those Charlottesville SJWs are unhappy.

It's definitely up there. I'm speechless.

Leicester City winning the Championship was by far and away the greatest sports upset in history.
this may be the biggest single game upset, though

Definitely the biggest upset in tournament history. The only reason Georgetown and Villanova are mentioned is because it was in the finals. This was the overall number one seed losing to a 16 seed in a blowout.

LCFC will likely never be topped.

The incredible thing is that Virginia wasn't just a one seed. They were the number one overall seed.

No it's not. Didn't think it would happen because of the officiating has been so bad...#1s always make a run and refs let them back in.
But...this is modern CBB, this is some huge upset especially if one team is going to play old school.
Charles was right this isn't 1980.
3-point shot equalizes everybody.
And you can't play like Virginia, slow down half-court...and dominate in today's game when everyone can nail 3s and erase any deficit in minutes.
Virginia would get 2s and their opponent would get 3s.
Slow big man offense isn't today's world.

Chaminade was an NAIA team when they beat #1 UVA with Ralph Sampson in 1982. That Chaminade team had previously lost to Wayland Baptist out of Plainview, TX. That to me is the greatest single-game upset in NCAA history.

I don't think so.
Virginia had an excellent season, but there's no real measurement that they are some "great" team.
And they certainly don't have overwhelming talent. And historically these Virginia teams don't have enough firepower to win this tournament regardless of their regular season.

This would be the greatest upset in sports history if UVA was playing a high school team. Like USSR vs. USA. THat's the equivalent.
College vs. Pros...High school vs. College.
This college game both had college players. It's nothing like Miracle on Ice.

Didn't it look to anyone that UVA looked really slow?
They seemed like they couldn't cover any 3s or any drive?
They actually looked slow and unathletic and they dominated the ACC in a way no Duke team or anybody ever has.
