And on the 19th day of March, VCU rose from the dead.
With 14:58 left in No. 11 VCU’s first-round game against No. 6 North Carolina, the Rams found themselves in a 56–37 hole. All the Rams did was outscore the Tar Heels 38–19 down the stretch to force overtime and ultimately polish off the largest first-round comeback win in NCAA men’s tournament history.
