15-seeded Florida Gulf Coast had odds of 200/1 to win the NCAA Championship.  The Eagles, who are making their first appearance in the NCAA Tournament, made history Sunday night with a win over San Diego State.  Odds were courtesy of Bookmaker.

A 15-seed has never advanced into the Sweet 16.

Of course, as one of the biggest Cinderella stories ever, Florida GC has managed to ruin most office pool brackets.

"Fort Myers is kind of rocking and rolling right now," FGCU forward Eddie Murray said less than 24 hours after the No. 15 Eagles beat second-seeded Georgetown 78-68. "They're really excited. This is a big thing for the city and I'm glad we could deliver this."
