And every spring, when the competition or the NCAA March Madness kicks, the phrase thrown around like Mark Sanchez to third down.

This year, the University of Florida's Gulf Coast, about 13 000 people College was built on more than 400 acres of alligator infested wetlands in Ft Myers, Florida, is the fact that school.

Sunday, FGCU Eagles become the first 15 seed in the 75-year history of the NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament to reach the Sweet 16, winning 7-seeded San Diego State 81-71. Prior to this, the Eagles delivered the biggest shock of the competition, beating two seeded Georgetown Hoyas 78-68 in the first round. 15 They were the seventh seed in the tournament's history to win the first round of the match.
