Thursday should be a happy occasion for Maryland fans, as they cheer their team into its first men's NCAA tournament Sweet 16 since 2016.
Unfortunately for them, it has turned into an awkward one.

Amazingly, Maryland has continued to win—downing Colorado State Sunday on a buzzer-beater from center Derik Queen.
