The Lehigh Mountain Hawks pulled one of the biggest upsets of the tournament when they knocked off Duke 75-70 in the opening round. While they got to wear the Cinderella slipper for a day, these No. 15 seed teams are rare pulling that sizeable of an upset. Going forward they have never won their next game in four chances, and lose by an average of 11 points per game in the next round when facing a No. 10 seed, which occurred following three of the four upsets in history. Xavier pulled a minor upset of their own in beating Notre Dame in their opener. The Musketeers always make a good showing in the Big Dance, and they have played in the tournament consecutively since the 2005-06 season and have an 16-4-1 ATS tourney resume in their last 21 games. Play on Xavier in this one.
