FSU fades more 3s than any other winner of an NCAA Tournament first-round game— ever

4-seed Florida State advanced to the round of 32 on Thursday afternoon, dominating the 13-seed Vermont Catamounts in every phase of the game, save one: UVM cashed in from beyond the arc, sinking 16-32 triples in falling 76-69 to the Seminoles.

Does that seem like a lofty total? Because it is. In fact, it’s history— on the right side of which FSU finds itself.

Vermont hit 16 threes, but still fell to Florida State.

It's tied for the 3rd-most threes in an NCAA tournament loss since the line was introduced in 1987.
