Yale is making a huge run on Duke right now. Would be a pretty sweet upset.

Love the Yale story.
Would be so sweet

A lot of turnovers for both sides in the last 10 minutes.

Duke is rattled.

A couple of the old scribes at the tourney were tweeting they've never seen it more evident.
Duke cant handle the pressure at this point

I'm not a big Lon Kruger fan, but OU is fun to watch.

Would love to see Buddy Hield play for MN in the NBA.

Buddy Hield trying to solidify his standing as the next first round pick of the Minnesota Timberwolves.

We could really use his shooting off the bench. I'm not particularly enthused about his NBA prospects, but I don't think he'd be the worst choice we could make.

LOL this reminds me of when Denny Green was coaching I think it was the Cardinals and they choked a game to the Chicago Bears. They were who we thought they were. We had them beaten and let them off the hook.

When Texas A&M freshman Admon Gilder made a steal and scored to complete the Aggies' comeback from a 12-point deficit in the last 33 seconds against Northern Iowa, it was the stuff every kid dreams of playing on the driveway back home.

As it turns out, that's where his parents were heading at the critical moment: home.

"They left with under a minute to go," Gilder told reporters. "They were walking to their car, and somebody said Admon hit the layup to tie it. So they watched the double overtime in the car on the way back to Dallas. They said sorry they weren't there to see that, and they loved me no matter what."

The Aggies went on to win the NCAA tournament game 92-88 in double overtime, advancing to the Sweet 16. Gilder said his parents missed the moment because they had to work the next day. His mom works in a dental office, and his dad at a Dallas charter school.

Gilder said that his parents wouldn't leave Thursday night's game against Oklahoma "until the clock hits zero," according to the Dallas Morning News.
