Unbelievable win for you guys

Great finish! Tayler Persons with a 3 with 1 sec left.

Massive win, props to Ball State.

When is the last time a MAC team beat a top 25 team let alone top 10?

Let's hope Miami gives us two P5 wins on the night (when's the last time that's happened in the same day for us?), though I won't hold my breath.

Led the entire game as well. Great effort by many, many players.

Hey, it wasn't that dramatic. It was 1.7 seconds.

Just kidding. I watched the last 5 minutes of the game. ND fought hard to come back.

I thought only EMU lost those kind of games... Lol.

Great win as BSU hadn't beat a top 25 in how many years? 16?

Beating in-state ND is huge.

Just a guess ... But Ball State over Duke and Kansas, I think, in 2001-2002

Awesome! Great job BSU!

Lost to #1 Duke in a closely contested game in the Maui final... beat #3 Kansas and #4 UCLA on the two days prior.

I watched the last 9 minutes. Great job by the Cardinals, person was th best player on the court down the stretch. Congratulations to James and Grunk for bringing Cardinal basketball back.

Congrats to the Cardinals! Great win for the program and for the MAC!

Nicely done Cards!

Here are the odds, which puts the upset in perspective:

12/05 7:00 PM
711 Ball State
712 Notre Dame
150½u-10
-17½ -10

Ball State was a 17.5 point underdog and ready for this:

BSU was 15 : 1 to win the game!!! Go to Vegas put down $100 on BSU pay for your vacation and come home with money in your pocket...

(If only if someone had posted that this was the upset game of the MBB season).

712 Notre Dame

Congrats to the Cards! Great win!

Incredible achievement for Ball St! Time to paint a mural of this one!

This game, Washington Wizards, shows how one can go crazy betting basketball.

Crazy things happen which don't normally happen in say football. (When is the last time a MAC team beat a top 10 FOOTBALL team? Never?).

Sunday night the Wizards lost by 47 (!) points to Utah. Then comes back two days later behind Bradley Beal's 51 points to beat Portland (both on the road).

Miami did beat #8 LSU in Baton Rouge back in 1986.

Meanwhile, I believe we were technically the last MAC team to beat a Top 10 opponent, albeit only a few weeks following the other examples pointed out from 2001.
