Annnnd... Wisconsin is Out

After Harvard, you might think that your bracket couldn't get any more messed up.
Nope. Wisconsin, a #5 team, has been knocked out by none other than Ole Miss (#12)

When the final buzzer buzzed, the score was 57-46 at the SprintCenter in Kansas City, Missouri.

SB Nation reports:

(Marshell) Henderson made just one of his first 13 shots before hitting a three-pointer at the 11:25 mark in the second half to cut Ole Miss' six-point deficit in half. Henderson drilled another trey two minutes later to tie the game and cap off an 8-2 run. After Murphy Holloway gave Ole Miss the lead with a pair of buckets with less than nine minutes remaining, Henderson extended the Rebels' lead to six with a layup and another three-pointer.
The Rebels' energetic junior guard finished with 19 points on 6-of-21 shooting. Holloway chipped in 10 points and nine rebounds for Ole Miss, which outscored Wisconsin in the second half, 35-21, and held Wisconsin to a 25.4-percent clip from the floor, to win its first tournament game since 2001. 
Ole Miss will face La Salle in the third round on Sunday.
