The only thing trying to bring down this thread are the #1 seeds who refused to buckle against the #8's and I'm thinking of Warroad in particular.

No one's bringing anything down yet. We're just waiting for the biggest "It Can Happen" moment that will occur in St Paul when the Rams finally log their first "L".
I have the infamous Denny Green clip cued up just for the moment.

The Biggest Seed still kicking is #7 Rogers.
Over the years there is a decent list of #7 seeds winning in the quarterfinal round but the key is getting them through to the finals.
Though rare, we do have some Great Moments in #7 seed history to help pump up those Royals.

From this he fed 5,000.
And all were satisfied.
This time of year, Miracles are everywhere as are random acts of secular unpredictibility.
It can happen to you.
It can happen to me.
It can happen to everyone, eventually.
Because that's what the song says.
YES: It Can Happen.

Just another way of saying:
