Answers:
| 1. | What's March Madness without upsets? Why, a dull thing, worthy of scorn. The first round of the tournament was sadly lacking in Cinderellas. What's the lowest seed to advance? | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | |||
|
12 | ||
| 15 | |||
|
By way of explanation.....
Middle Tennessee State University, a 12 seed, was technically the biggest surprise, although the 11 seeds went 3-1. |
|||
| 2. | This team is famously 6-0 and now a Sweet 16 entrant since their plane crash. | ||
| Butler | |||
|
|
Michigan | ||
| West Virginia | |||
| Xavier | |||
|
By way of explanation.....
They also won their game preceding the plane crash, but that's not as great a story. |
|||
| 3. | In the wake of their plane crash, Michigan (did you get it right?) claimed the second-biggest upset of the tournament so far when they defeated this 2 seed. | ||
| Arizona | |||
| Duke | |||
| Kentucky | |||
|
|
Louisville | ||
| 4. | Being the #1 overall seed in the tournament didn't help this team. In fact, it might have hurt them, as they were the first #1 seed eliminated. | ||
| Gonzaga | |||
| Kansas | |||
| North Carolina | |||
|
|
Villanova | ||
| 5. | One of the best stories of the NCAA tournament so far is the son of a crack cocaine addict. Nicknamed "Biggie," he weighed 360 pounds in the eighth grade, and his late father was at 500 pounds when he passed away. The player is now a cut, stout power forward for Purdue named... | ||
| Miles Bridges | |||
| Josh Jackson | |||
| Shaq Morris | |||

Caleb Swanigan | ||
|
By way of explanation.....
Swanigan is so diet conscious that if the pros don't work out, he should start a health program. |
|||
| 6. | We know one coach who won't be watching Hoosiers anytime soon. Indiana fired this man, who had won Big 10 championships two out of the last five seasons. | ||

Tom Crean | ||
| Mark Gottfried | |||
| Jim Groce | |||
| Bruce Pearl | |||
| 7. | The phrase "nightmare fuel" gets thrown around too often, but the official EA video game for this sport really deserves it. A bug in their programming allowed players to create something akin to the thing that killed Nicolas Cage in The Wicker Man. What's the sport you will never play in videogame form again? | ||
|
|
Baseball | ||
| Basketball | |||
| Hockey | |||
| Soccer | |||
| 8. | The Oakland Raiders were one of the youngest teams in football the past two seasons. They apparently want to change that with a single move, as they are currently considering this currently retired player. | ||
| Brett Favre | |||
| Calvin Johnson | |||
|
|
Marshawn Lynch | ||
| Peyton Manning | |||
| 9. | This university experienced the yin and yang of March Madness. After making the tournament for the first time, they won their first game against Vanderbilt by two points, and then lost to Gonzaga due to a controversial goaltending no-call that the NCAA admitted was wrong. Livid after the event, their head coach rushed over to the official to complain and got a technical foul, causing a four-point swing in a game ultimately decided by six points. Which team started the week dancing, but wound up | ||
| East Tennessee State University | |||
| Northern Kentucky | |||
|
|
Northwestern | ||
| St. Mary's | |||
| 10. | Oh, good lord. Stupid is contagious. Yet another famous athlete has come out in support of the flat Earth theory. Who is the person responsible for this quote? "I drive from Florida to California all the time, and it's flat to me. I do not go up and down at a 360-degree angle, and all that stuff about gravity." | ||

| Charles Barkley | |||

Shaquille O'Neal | ||
| Dennis Rodman | |||

| On fire | |||
| In a dumpster | |||
| Shredded into a thousand tiny pieces | |||
