It was Duke's first national championship since 2001 and fourth overall.Entering the tournament, the top four seeds were Kansas, Duke, Kentucky, and Syracuse. Kansas entered the tournament as the overall number one seed but were defeated on opening weekend by Northern Iowa, the #9 seed in the Midwest region. Northern Iowa was one of four teams seeded lower than #8 to advance to the Sweet Sixteen, joining East Region #11 seed Washington and #12 seed Cornell and South Region #10 seed Saint Mary's.For the first time since 2006, a #14 seed advanced out of the first round as Ohio defeated Georgetown in the sub-regionals at Dunkin' Donuts Center. The #13 seed in the West Region, Murray State, defeated Vanderbilt marking the second consecutive appearance for the Commodores where they lost as a #4 seed. Murray State very nearly upset Butler in their next game, losing by two.One of the more exciting games of the tournament was played at the West Regional in Salt Lake City, as #6 Xavier took #2 Kansas State to two overtimes before falling 101-96. Jordan Crawford hit a three-pointer with seconds remaining in the first overtime period to force a second."@en }
