March Madness 2023: Twitter reacts to Princeton-Arizona upset

More chaos has ensued in the 2023 men's NCAA tournament, with the No. 15 Princeton Tigers' 59-55 upset of the No. 2 Arizona Wildcats.

It marks the first time a school has lost twice in the NCAA tournament as a No. 2 seed in the round of 64. Arizona also lost to Santa Clara and eventual two-time NBA MVP Steve Nash in 1993.

It was a tight contest for much of the matchup. Princeton outscored Arizona 24-16 in the paint in the first half, but the Wildcats nursed a 31-30 lead at the midway point. The 2-seed's lead swelled to 10 points with eight minutes remaining, giving it a 94.8% chance to win, according to ESPN Analytics… then the Tigers pulled off the largest upset victory by an Ivy League team since the tournament expanded in 1985.

Princeton's victory secured a win by a 15-seed in three consecutive NCAA tournaments for the first time in 38 years. The Saint Peter's Peacocks kept the trend going last year and congratulated their fellow Jersey-based 15-seed.

Don't mess with the 15 seeds from New Jersey... Congrats <a href=«https://twitter.com/PrincetonMBB?ref_src=» https:>@PrincetonMBB
