Two weeks and over 3,200 votes later, we’re down to just eight GIFs.
Eight GIFs will move on in search of glory; eight others will head back to the locker room with shoulders slumped, on their way home for a long, sad summer. There were some close races en route to the second round, and some not-so-close races… and one that came down to just a handful of votes, once again proving that every vote counts.
So here they are, your Elite Eight – go relive the magic of each Division Finalist, and be sure to make your picks and get your favorite into the Conference Finals next week.
Voting for this round will close at 11:55 pm ET on Wednesday, August 20.
