2016’s ‘One Shining Moment’ Is Why Nothing Tops March Madness
Villanova's thrilling win over North Carolina to capture its first national championship since 1985 is front and center in the annual "One Shining Moment" montage.
The song and video compilation is as much a part of March Madness as buzzer beaters, upsets and squirming out of work to watch all the games.
Sixty-eight teams start the tournament every year with visions of glory, only to see their seasons end in defeat, but the memories last a lifetime. Even making it to this stage is an accomplishment, especially for the little schools that capture the nation's hearts with its scrappy play and David-versus-Goliath-type attitudes.
In the end, Villanova, a number two seed that spent part of the season as the number one team in the country, cut down the nets, the ultimate accomplishment in the sport.
Relive the Wildcats' journey -- and everyone else's -- in this year's brilliant "One Shining Moment," which is guaranteed to give you goosebumps and have you counting down to next year's tournament.
And if you're a Villanova fan, why not watch the newly-crowned champs watch the video.
