One of the things that makes March Madness great has landed squarely in the laps of the Florida Gators.

Oral Roberts University, a private evangelical university with 4,000 students in Tulsa, Okla., has seen itself in the middle of the sports world suddenly. The school's men's basketball team, which had a 15 seed in the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, pulled off a massive upset Friday with a 75-72 overtime win over the second-seeded Ohio State Buckeyes.
