The NCAA Tournament is known for its epic finishes and badass teams. Every year, the country tunes in to see Goliaths fall to Davids (except for this guy, who picked all 1 and 2 seeds for the Final Four—boring!). And while some of those shocking upsets are the simple result of better play, many of the most memorable moments in the tourney have come because of shocking fails. Bricked free throws, errant passes, tears and, yes, a phantom timeout: These are the 50 Biggest Fails in March Madness History.
