March Madness 2023: Twitter reacts to FAU-San Diego State

The San Diego State Aztecs are off to the 2023 NCAA tournament national championship.

They punched their ticket to the title game Saturday in rather dramatic fashion after Lamont Butler's buzzer-beater secured a 72-71 win over the Florida Atlantic Owls in Houston.

With the victory, San Diego State looks to become the second team in the past 50 years to win the title after making its first Final Four appearance. After trailing 40-33 at halftime, Matt Bradley led the Aztecs' second-half comeback by scoring or assisting on 27 points.
