UAAP Final Four postmortem

What has never been done before in the UAAP has finally happened: the #4 seed has beaten the #1 seed. You see, this happened in the NCAA before when #4 seed Letran defeated #1 seed San Sebastian (ah, the bad blood rivalry) in 1999. Like 2013 UST, 1999 Letran's seed was masked by the fact that their best players weren't able to play, for one reason or another (in Letran's case, national team duty; in UST's case, injuries).

UST wasn't your ordinary #4 seed. The Tigers had a 2-0 start until Jeric Teng got injured. Teng returned, ironically against NU, but UST still lost. Then, UST won 6 of their last 7 games, with the only loss coming from La Salle.
