No. 15 Middle Tennessee pulled off the fourth-largest upset in NCAA tournament history Friday by knocking off No. 2 Michigan State, and Reggie Upshaw's late dunk provided the dagger.
With the Spartans looking for a steal in the game's final minute, the Blue Raiders executed a perfect press break that led to Upshaw's dunk and the foul.
Middle Tennessee entered as a 17-point underdog, yet somehow was able to knock off Tom Izzo and the Spartans, never trailing in the contest.
