If you thought the #1 overall seed Villanova Wildcats were going to repeat as champions, or at least reach the final four, or at least make it to the Sweet 16- your bracket probably isn't looking so hot right now.

Last year's National champs were defeated in the second round today by the #8 seed Wisconsin Badgers, 65-62.

This marks the fourth straight season that the Badgers have made it to at least the Sweet 16, the only team in college hoops who has done so. Wisconsin now awaits the winner of tonight's Virginia vs. Florida matchup, who they'll face on Friday night at Madison Square Garden.

Check out Nigel Hayes' game winning bucket below, in which he says he channeled Michael Jordan.
