TTBTT quarterfinal results
After slipping by Michigan and South Carolina in overtime, Louisiana finally saw its luck run out against Mississippi, the lowest seed to advance.
Pennsylvania pulled a narrow upset of Georgia, perhaps proving a team of two guards fares better than a team of two big men.
That leaves Illinois and Ohio as the only No. 1 seeds to reach the semifnals, and they’ll play each other. It would be a huge upset if the winner of that game didn’t claim the TTBBT title.
