Pittsburgh is the place to be right now (unless partying in Omaha). Two OT games. Great game to end the day.

This Oregon-Creighton game has been fun.

Oregon Creighton OT

 

[Illini2010-11]

This Oregon-Creighton game has been fun.

Craziest stat was Oregon taking first free throw with less than 30 seconds left in regulation. Not generally a recipe for success.

Sheldon Cooper is both an outstanding fictional physicist, and a stellar center for Creighton.

What a big shot by Alexander to put Creighton up 3. Fantastic game.

Shannon by himself shoots more FT’s than both have in this game

Dang. This Cousinard guy is cold blooded.

40 in the first round, 32 tonight.

 

[OrangeBlue98]

Cousinard-are you f^^^ing kidding me??

 

[Illini2010-11]

So glad our 3 vs 11 matchup was so straightforward. Oregon is scary good 11 seed.

 

[IlliniFaninHoosierLand]

Now heading to double OT between Oregon and Creighton.

 

[DeeAndDWill]

Couisnard is insane

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Holy moly. Double OT.

Boy am I glad our game wasn't like this double OT. I don't know if my heart could have made it. Glad to have a breather before things get real in Boston!

 

[SuperMetroid]

Double OT. Forgot how much fun it is watching this when we’re already into the 2nd weekend

This is great theater.

 

[Scoregasm]

Oregon does not look like an 11 seed.

 

[IlliniTSM]

Creighton pulling away here in 2OT.

Creighton pulling away here in 2OT.

Yeah, Oregon ran out of gas

 

[OrangeBlue98]

I haven’t watched Colorado-Florida yet, but this Creighton-Oregon game is the best game I’ve watched live in this tournament so far.

 

[Miles Leonard]

Guess Oregon simply ran out of gas. Still a damn entertaining game.

 

[OrangeBlue98]

McDermott made the coaching move of this tournament so far doubling Cousinard on the high pick and roll. Credit to Steve Lappas for catching that as well. Mac was not going to let Cousinard beat him.

 

[Thaillini22]

Cousinard-are you f^^^ing kidding me??

He took 33 shots in this game.

 

[Chad Fleck]

Phew, almost lost one of my Final 4 picks.

 

[OrangeBlue98]

He took 33 shots in this game.

But one was the tying three with two guys in his face.
