Whomever’s brackets were left at least relatively intact towards the end of Day 2 of March Madness finally tossed them into the garbage can after second-seeded Georgetown fell to 15th-seeded Florida Gulf Coast on Friday night, 78-68.

Despite the fact that Georgetown boasted First Team All-American Otto Porter, FGCU played as one both offensively and defensively, and for an entire 40 minutes.

Once it was all over, fans of the Eagles and just general sports fans voiced their shock over the monumental win for a team that was playing in its very first NCAA Tournament.

Brett Comer is best PT guard I’ve seen in this tourney..FGCU best coached team I’ve seen all yr..fun offense incredibly scouted

— Dan Dakich (@dandakich) March 23, 2013

someone ask John Thompson IVIIIVX- or whatever number he is did they watch tape on FGCU or did they know what conference they played in?

— Brandon Joseph (@squintsjoseph) March 23, 2013

The school is trash talking!! RT @fgcu: When people ask you where FGCU is, just tell them Dunk City, Florida!

— Rob Carlin (@RobCarlinCSN) March 23, 2013

Part of FGCU’s section? Decked out in Hawaiian shirts and tank tops. I guess life’s a beach. Even in Philly.

That basket was the stuff March Madness dreams are made of, yep. Go FGCU.

FGCU has a link on the bottom of their home page to prove accreditation. I’m not making this up. fgcu.edu/Provost/accred…

I am probably the only person in America who chose #FGCU to beat Georgetown

— Palmer Adams (@palmer_adams) March 23, 2013

An audible “oooooohhh” from the crowd when they flash the FGCU – Georgetown score.

the FGCU-Georgetown game is why I watch March Madness

FGCU didn’t have a basketball team until 1997……………………

— DeAntrey Jordan (@Tr3y__) March 23, 2013

Does FGCU have enough dunks in this game for its own top 10? Cutting it pretty close

FGCU is gonna make a run for the title, and I’m gonna win this $60.

Where’s Brent Musburger when you need an inappropriate comment about someones significant other. FGCU’s coach outkicked his coverage. #FGCU

— Sean Vanderbrook (@SeanVanderbrook) March 23, 2013

Does TBS really have to keep showing the FGCU coach’s wife? Geez.

— Shandel Richardson(@ShandelRich) March 23, 2013

I’d totally be making FGCU jokes if I hadn’t just heard of it 15mins ago

— Jacob Perry (@jacobperry) March 23, 2013

FGCU’s table at the next college fair is just going to be a poster of that dunk and a 60-inch TV playing a DVD of Spring Breakers.

— Danger Guerrero (@DangerGuerrero) March 23, 2013

FGCU! FGCU! FGCU! FGCU! FGCU! We are all Florida Gulf Coast University. #MeaningofMarchMadness

— William H. Powell (@WPowell19) March 23, 2013

I said it on Sunday. Georgetown should have been really ticked about this matchup. FGCU shouldn’t have been a 15. Still…come on.

— Dan Wolken (@DanWolken) March 23, 2013

Who picked #FGCU? THIS GUY! I’m definitely getting a Florida Gulf Coast t-shirt. Easily my best pick ever! Also had FGCU +13.5 M&M’s.

— Carson Cunningham (@CarsonC5) March 23, 2013

Georgetown’s fresh jerseys weren’t enough to stop us!!! #fgcu

— Jose L (@jose_phuego) March 23, 2013

This wasn’t even an upset, at least in terms of the game flow. It was a TKO by #FGCU.

Despite my brackets and feeling awful for Georgetown, but really into this Brown kid and this new little school. FGCU #NCAA

Sherwood Brown going up and shaking hands with the commentators during a timeout with 5 seconds left. Awesome moment, enjoy FGCU! #Madness

— Adam Lowe (@alowe22) March 23, 2013

Florida Gulf Coast is the 7th 15-seed ever to beat a 2-seed. FGCU’s 10-point win is the 2nd-largest margin by a 15-seed over a 2-seed.

— ESPN Stats & Info (@ESPNStatsInfo) March 23, 2013

If it’s any consolation for G’Town, FGCU was the highest 15 seed on the official seed list.

— MN Buckets (@mnbuckets) March 23, 2013

Well I would’ve said that FGCU game ruined everyone’s bracket, but lets be real, there was only ONE intact bracket left.

Happy for FGCU, but my bracket has been officially burned.I’ll spread it’s ashes somewhere that we had happy memories.

The end of the FGCU bench looks like they’re a bunch of backpackers that are crashing with the team this week. #MarchMadness #fgcu

— Sean Keane (@LLCoolS) March 23, 2013

With a win Sunday, the FGCU Eagles will have as many wins in Philly as the Philadelphia Eagles did.
