NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Nevada’s upset of Cincinnati in the second round of the NCAA tournament will be remembered, first and foremost, for its sheer implausibility. Down 22 points with 11:37 left in the second half, the Wolf Pack looked all but certain to bow out against a 31-win No. 2 seed with the second-best defense in the country. They proceeded to rip off a 32-8 run against the Bearcats to produce a meme-worthy win probability chart, complete a comeback that tied for the second largest in tourney history and earn the program its first trip since 2004 to the Sweet 16, where Nevada will face No.
