Unbelievable Underdogs: The Lowest-Seeded Teams That Shocked Everyone by Reaching the Final Four

11-Seed VCU in 2011

VCU was another team that played in the First Four as an 11-seed and still made the Final Four.

After being tied at halftime in the First Four game against USC, VCU used a strong second half to pull away 59-46.

The team held Georgetown’s starters to just 27 points in the next round and blew out the Hoyas. The Rams put the clamps on Purdue’s bench players the next round, allowing only five bench points in a 94-76 win. They finally had a close game in the regional semifinal, beating Florida State 72-71 despite allowing 20 offensive rebounds. VCU then faced the top seed in the regional final, but was undeterred, using a strong first half and 26 points from Jamie Skeen to beat Kansas 71-61.
