Bracket Buster

From ESPN: College basketball, meet Florida Gulf Coast.
A school so new it wasn't eligible for the NCAA tournament until last year busted a load of brackets Friday night.
With 24 points from Sherwood Brown and a healthy dose of swagger, FCGU upset second-seeded Georgetown 78-68 in the second round of the South Regional.
"This is our first time being in the NCAA tournament. To actually go out there and win that first game, it means something really special to us," said Brown, who was the first of the players to head toward the Florida Gulf Coast cheering section with several seconds still on the clock.
The Eagles used a 21-2 second-half run to pull away from the Hoyas and then held on in the final minute to become just the seventh No. 15 seed to beat a No. 2.  http://scores.espn.go.com/ncb/recap?gameId=330810046
This will break a few brackets, but was broken earlier, when Wisconsin lost in the first round.
