Coming into this game, the majority of college basketball experts said that Stanford had the better team, and I would have agreed with them. Stanford have fantastic scoring threats - Dwight Powell, Josh Huestis, and Chasson Randle all average double digit points - and they played in a slightly more prestigious league than Dayton, the Pac 12. However, they never could have expected the level of intensity and hustle that Dayton would bring to the game. Simply enough, Dayton wanted the win so much more than Stanford. Maybe at some point Dayton's lack of world-beating talent will catch up to them, but it hasn't happened yet... So long Stanford cowbell boy, and hello Dayton Flyers. Welcome to the Elite Eight.
