Is that one of the biggest choke jobs of all time?

I don't know if I've ever seen anything like that before. The game is all wrapped up and then they pull that shite. Unbelievable

I can't think of a bigger one given the circumstances.

Any time a team overcomes that deficit in such a short time, two things happen:

1) The team that is ahead makes mistakes.
2) The team that is behind makes plays.


That's what just happened. Period. Credit to A&M. Awesome job.

Michigan Michigan State football instantly came to my mind as well. Given the margin and everything at stake though that was worse by Northern Iowa.

In college hoops, Duke/Maryland 2001, Gonzaga/UCLA 2006 and the Kansas/Memphis title game were all right up there.

Biggest comeback I can remember in that amount of time.

Vandy vs Pitt in '88 is the only one I can think of even close. Maybe Illinois vs Zona in '05?

It was Reggie Miller-esque, without Reggie Miller.

14-2 in under a minute is impressive at any level.

That's the equivalent of scoring a TD going for 2, getting an onsides, getting another TD and onsidesing again and kicking a FG to tie the game at the 2 minute warning.

That is the biggest choke in the history of the NCAA tournament.

I'm sure the media tomorrow ill have the stats but I'm just gonna guess no other team has ever blown a 12 point lead with under a minute left.

blowing a 1 score lead in 1 play, no matter how spectacularly, is not the same.

UNI would have won the game by doing basically ANYTHING other than turning it over under their own basket 4 times in 30 seconds.

Yes. Computers had them at a 99.99% probability to win.

Yep, literally throw it the length of the court each time and you win.

?,I only saw replay. Was NI out of timeouts?
