Northern Iowa's halfcourt buzzer-beater that sent Texas home punctuated a historic opening round Friday, matching the record for first-round upsets based on seed since the NCAA tournament expanded to 64 teams in 1985.
A game-ending, two-handed dunk by Cincinnati that was waved off by game officials capped the opening round moments later, after the No. 11 seed Panthers' dramatic win over the sixth-seeded Longhorns became the 13th upset of the first round.
The ninth-seeded Bearcats missed the 14th upset by a split second, falling to No. 8 Saint Joseph's.
