NCAA Men's Tourney Round 2: Significant Upsets!

MASSIVE:

Massachusetts upsets #1 seed Boston College 2-1 behind two second-half strikes.

Bradley ousts in PKs #4 seed and University proving that a 17-day hiatus from competition is not a good thing for a top seed.

BIG:

Illinois-Chicago - after beating traditional powerhouse Saint Louis - takes down #9 seed Northwestern, 2-0.

Cinderella team Central Connecticut State beats #16 seed Tulsa 3-2 to set up a second-round match-up of underdogs (vs. UMass).

The Old Dominion Monarchs shrugged off the Ivy League champs and #6 seed Brown University in a 2-1, double overtime thriller.

South Florida took care of #14 seeds Akron in a 1-0 game on a Yohance Marshall
redirection.
