FDU vs. Purdue - First Round NCAA tournament extended highlights

Arizona: “we are the most disappointing team this March”
Purdue: “hold my 1 seed”

"The more I watch Purdue the more I think we can beat them" I'll remember that quote forever

FDU stuns Purdue! Let’s congratulate FDU from 4 wins last season to beating a team that was ranked #1 in the country half of the season.

Imagine losing to a 15 seed last year and a 16 seed this year.
Two cupcake games that turned into humiliation.

My 87 year old Dad is an FDU class of ‘57 alum, so happy he was able to watch and enjoy this win!

FDU Coach's resume just got a lot more impressive.🔥🔥🔥
From 4 wins to knocking off #1 in his first year.

I had Purdue winning this game (didn't we all), but I've never been happier to take an L.

This year's Saint Peters. Just shows how far team defense, toughness, and discipline can take you. I can see them getting to at least the Sweet 16

The beauty of a low scoring game is that you can watch every basket in under 10 minutes. What a game for FDU, absolute Legends for Life

Princeton:we had the best upset this year

FDU:Allow us to introduce ourselves.

Unbelievable tournament so far, this one will go down in the history books for sure.

That moment when the clock hits zero and FDU just starts going crazy celebrating is a perfect example of what makes March Madness so incredible. What a special performance by a team absolutely no one believed in.

Imagine losing to a 16 seed that wasn’t even supposed to be there

I'm honestly more impressed by this FDU upset than by the UMBC one from a few years ago. That one really felt like aUVA completely fell apart and UMBC took advantage. With this one Purdue fought the whole time and FDU just made sure it wasn't enough. Incredible win.

“The more I watch Purdue the more I think we can beat them” is officially the best quote in the tournament’s history

I’ve been saying it all year … Eddy is the ONLY reason Purdue was good this year (convince me other wise) … as soon as he would leave games teams would make runs and Purdue was stagnant … this is what happens when you rely on one guy!! CONGRATS FDU!!!

This is now the biggest upset in March Madness history, considering FDU was 24 point underdogs, while UMBC was only 20 point underdogs against Virginia.

Things comes in full circle!
Back in 1985. In the Southeast region, 16 seed Fairleigh Dickinson Knights nearly beat 1 Seed Michigan Wolverines . Lost 59-55. FDU Lead at the half, 26-20, Michigan rallied in the 2nd half. . FDU shouldve been the first ever 16 seed ever to beat 1 seed. But , they are the 2nd one ever (UMBC beat UVA a few years ago).
Also, back in 1996. In the West Region. 16 Seed Western Carolina Catamounts lead 1 Seed Purdue in a back and forth game, each team had brief leads all game long. Then Purdue Boilermakers pulled away, but WCU came back. Had chance to win at the end. Missed wide open 3 point shot top of the key. Then missed tip in, that would send to OT. Close ending. WCU lost 73-71. Purdue wouldve been the First 1 seed ever to lose. Well, they are now the 2nd ever 1 seed to lose.
Very very interesting!

The interior passing from FDU was impressive. Great win!

March Madness, moments like these are why we love this tournament! Congratulations to the Knights of Fairleigh Dickinson in joining University of Maryland, Baltimore County as 16 seeds to beat a 1 seed (:
