There's nothing to wonder about. The ags played like shite for 38 minutes and then came back and won the game.

No bitterness. If another SEC team had been down by 10 with :30 left to a directional school wouldn't you have wondered how that happened in the first place?
Are you new to college hoops? This direction school (along with a lot of small schools) win vs good teams yearly. The were fresh off of beating a solid Big 12 team and had already beaten ISU, UNC, and WSU (2x) in the regular season. It was no shock that they could have beaten A&M too.

Congrats. But this is more like the fat woman at work who brags about losing 10 lbs. How the hell did you get that far behind Northern Iowa in the first place? This wasn't Notre Dame's comeback to end UCLA's 88 game win streak.
1. That's a pretty good basketball team.
2. We played like beetle-infested rhinoceros shite.
3. They hit all kinds of 3s and we couldn't buy one.
shite happens. This ain't football, where there is a serious lack of parity between FBS and FCS.

Well to put some perspective on it, UNI had beaten every ranked team they faced this season, as well as a couple more wins over tournament teams. Plus this was their fourth NCAA tournament appearance in the last ten years.
11/17 vs Stephen F. Austin W 70-60
11/21 vs #1 North Carolina W 71-64
12/19 vs #5 Iowa State W 81-79
2/13 vs #25 Wichita State W 53-50
3/5 vs Wichita State W 57-52 OT
3/18 vs Texas W 75-72
11/17 vs Stephen F. Austin W 70-60

In March Madness? No.

So I guess all of you just marveled at LSU's comeback in football vs Troy State in 2008. Down 31-3 early in the 4th and wound up winning, 40-31. I'm sure everyone of you were just amazed at LSU's tenacity and determination.

The Northern Iowa that has 5 top 50 RPI wins including North Carolina, Wichita State, Iowa State, and Texas?
God you're dumb.

Congrats on coming back to beat a shitty team?
UNI wasn't a shitty team. Sorry you're to stupid to realize that.

Again, NCAA Football =/= NCAA Basketball.
LSU had WAY better athletes all across he field. There was not ONE position on the field that was an advantage to Troy, except (knowing LSU) probably the QB position.
Basketball is not a strength and speed game as much as a finesse and skill game. Those UNI players are money beyond the arch. You can't beat a team that hits every damn shot. It doesn't matter how tall or powerful those players are.
Make sense?

Then don't ever watch another because it'll only disappoint.

UNI most certainly choked. In watching the replays, it might be one of the biggest choke jobs I've seen in the tournament. That doesn't take away what TAMU did though. You still have to capitalize on another team's mistakes and TAMU did just that, so they deserve all the credit in the world.

wasn't in the last minute of the game, but Kentucky came back down 31 with about 15 min to go against LSU in 1994. USA Today called it the greatest comeback in sports history

eh, Troy State went 8-4 and to a bowl game in 2008. I don't see how that's worlds different than making the NCAA tournament as an 11 seed

Great comeback but the and one was a terrible call. Ref blew the game.
Posted on 3/21/16 at 10:43 am to Hugh McElroy
