A Wisconsin score bug error giving them 225 points became an instant meme
For at least one shining moment, Wisconsin had ALL THE POINTS in men's March Madness.
Too bad it didn't really count for the Badgers, who ended up losing to the Cougars in a second-round men's tournament upset of the No. 3 seed.
After a three-pointer, CBS's score bug showed Wisconsin's score soaring all the way up to 225 points before it was taken down, so maybe there was an actual bug in the score bug (sorry not sorry).
The problem was fixed, but not before college basketball fans turned it into a meme with lots of jokes on X (formerly Twitter). Here's a sampling:
