March Madness is officially underway and the upsets are already in full effect. The top-ranked Arizona Wildcats saw their chances of becoming NCAA champions crumble apart as they fell apart to the Buffalo Bulls. The Wildcats walked into their opening round with being nine-point favorites and had high hopes of reaching the Sweet Sixteen.
However, No.13 ranked Buffalo would drop a classic beat down on the No.3 Wildcats as they controlled the Pac-12 champions all game long. It was the worst way to finish off the season for the Wildcats, but even more embarrassing to be an alumnus of theirs and watch the team crash and burn.
Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala was once a Wildcat and tried to enjoy the game on his day off. But clearly, by his reactions on Twitter, it did not go as planned.
The Wildcats most likely would have needed Iguodala back in a Wildcats uniform to complete the comeback on Thursday but they were down from the start. Buffalo went on to shot a first-round record 15-of-30 from behind the arc and became the first Cinderella team to talk about it.
Former Wildcats player Nick Johnson also spoke about the disappointing night on twitter asking the question of whether or not Arizona was going to play defense at all Thursday. Iguodala had the perfect response.
After the lead kept getting bigger and bigger, it seems as if Iguodala, along with the thousands of Wildcat fans, watching, slowly went to bed a bit earlier than they hoped for. The Buffalo Bulls will be facing the Kentucky Wildcats in the next round.
