This is just surreal.

Cheer up, #Duke: You've still got Peyton Manning. Until Monday.

I wonder if Jim Nantz had a closing line ready for Duke losing this game

How many professional basketball games have the thrill of one Lehigh-Duke March Madness Game?

This RT @TimFernholz: Duke losing in the first round is well worth my bracket being effed.

Lehigh is dunking on Duke to win this game. Read that sentence until it makes sense.

Here’s the report from NBC Sports:

Less than two hours after Norfolk State pulled off an NCAA tournament rarity, Lehigh made some history of its own.

The Mountain Hawks stunned second-seeded Duke 75-70 Friday night, becoming the sixth 15 seed to win an NCAA tournament game.

And, just like the Spartans did in their win against No. 2 Missouri, Lehigh outplayed the Blue Devils from the opening tip, displaying more quickness and savvy, not to mention the game’s best player in junior C.J. McCollum.

He dominated the game, leading all scorers with 28 points, not to mention grabbing seven rebounds and dishing six assists.

“@enviro_prof: @nytjim I'm a prof at duke and I'm rooting for Lehigh…”

2 thumbs up to al jazeera English for putting the duke game on while I wait for my segment on the GOP's #waronwomen http://t.co/mjSH3ite

Assassination of Arch Duke Ferdinand that incited WWI > Duke Blue Devils.

Duke losing to Lehigh makes me think Drexel got hosed. They might have been a Final Four team–and were univited to the dance.

Duke is one basket away from being bounced in the 1st round 3 of the last 6 years. Barely escaped Belmont in `08 and lost to VCU in `07.

Duke, this is a great moment for our country … don't ruin it by trying to win.

No, Duke didn't injure anyone. RT @JoeDSports: OMG,who designed the Duke defense there, Gregg Williams
