- 1998: No. 13 Valpariso over No. 4 Mississippi. Fun fact of the day: Bryce Drew, the Valpo player who made the game-winning shot, is now the head coach for the Crusaders: http://youtu.be/KFGLY90-gZ8

- 2012: No. 15 Lehigh over No. 2 Duke. This upset busted almost everyone's brackets. Jokes about the Lehigh cheerleaders also became very popular. http://youtu.be/bxMKSRrZAiw
- 2012: No. 15 Norfolk State over Missouri. 2012 was the first time in NCAA history that two No. 15 seeds advanced past the Round of 64 in the same year: http://youtu.be/04E0aOAOonw

- 2005: No. 14 Bucknell over No. 3 Kansas. Bill Self's first few years as head coach of the Jayhawks started off a bit rocky: http://youtu.be/EY_Q_IiQh70
- 1993: No. 15 Santa Clara over No. 2 Arizona. This game gave us a glimpse of what current Lakers point guard Steve Nash could really do: http://youtu.be/BtZTyDRbE4Q
