10 years ago on March 30, 2014, The UConn Huskies upset Michigan State in the Elite 8 of the Mens NCAA March Madness tournament, this win effectively busted then President Barack Obama's bracket who had Michigan State to win the whole thing. At the time, GO Agency was managing marketing for UConn athletics and their Twitter account and we put out this tweet:
