The second and third rounds of the NCAA Tournament produced some notable upsets, particularly No. 15 seeds Norfolk State and Lehigh upending second-seeded Missouri and Duke within hours of each other Friday.
There was technically another upset Sunday when the 11th-seeded North Carolina State Wolfpack defeated the third-seeded Georgetown Hoyas, 66-63, but considering Georgetown's recent ineptitude against double-digit seeds, it really is not as surprising as it seems.
2012 (No. 3 seed): Lost to No. 11 N.C. State 66-63 in third round.
2011 (No. 6 seed): Lost to No. 11 Virginia Commonwealth 74-56 in second round.
2010 (No. 3 seed): Lost to No, 14 Ohio 97-83 in first round.
2008 (No. 2 seed): Lost to No. 10 Davidson 74-70 in second round.
The Hoyas have also not advanced past the first weekend of the tournament since 2007, when they ultimately fell to Ohio State in the Final Four.
