Loyola-Chicago is just the latest Cinderella team to make a deep run in the tournament — here is how the others fared

The No. 11 Loyola-Chicago Ramblers are the feel-good story of the NCAA Tournament thus far, continuing their Cinderella run all the way to a spot in the Final Four.

While low seeds making it this far into the tournament is not unprecedented, it is somewhat rare — just 11 teams seeded No. 8 or lower have made it to the Final Four since expanding to 64 teams. Of the ten teams that came before Loyola-Chicago, just one of them has taken home the national championship.

Below you can find every team in NCAA Tournament history that entered March Madness as a No. 8 seed or lower that had made it to a national semifinal.
