UCLA Bruins vs. Alabama Crimson Tide sparked a lot of reaction on Twitter

In one of the NCAA tournament's most exciting games so far, the 11-seed UCLA Bruins upset the 2-seed Alabama Crimson Tide 88-78 in the Sweet 16.

UCLA held an 11-point lead going into halftime, but Alabama refused to give up, storming back to make it a back-and-forth game late into the second half. After Herbert Jones missed two free throws to keep it at 63-62 with six seconds remaining, UCLA's David Singleton hit both of his on the other end, giving the Bruins a three-point advantage with just four seconds remaining.
