No. 14 Furman Eliminates No. 3 Virginia in the Most Ridiculous Manner Possible

Virginia just lost in ridiculous fashion. It must be March.

The only school to ever lose as a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament found a way to lose as a No. 3 seed to a team that had not been to the Big Dance in 43 years. It all happened thanks to a bone-headed play by an 11th-year senior.

Virginia appeared to weather a late storm by Furman. The Cavaliers kept the Paladins at arm’s length for most of the game, until the SoCon Champs came storming back to take the lead with five minutes remaining.
