Here's a fun thought.

Purdue was the #1 seed overall out of 64 teams. That means they played the lowest 16 seed. So actually, FDU was the #64 team in the tourny. It should be called the victory of the 64th place team over the #1 team. Congrats Purdue. You just set a record that can never be broken. Only tied but probably never will be. That's gotta be tough for Purdue fans.

Bama was the number one overall seed

Lol, no worries...#63 beats #2!

Still a pretty fun thought!

Purdue was the last of the four #1 seeds. Bama, Houston, Kansas, and then the Boilermakers. IMO, UCLA would have gotten the final #1 seed had they not had two significant players go down with injuries the final week of the season.

Incorrect.

They were the last team in as a play-in team. They were 68/68.

And only got in because their conference champion decline the invitation. They weren’t even slated to be playing originally.

Sometimes a thought should just stay a thought.

That’s the history that can only be tied but never broken.(Until they go to 128 teams).
