This gif never gets old. It's the gif that keeps on giving.

I'm going to claim another victory here. Watched the entire first half and was disgusted enough I just switched to watching Jiminy Glick clips, which was a sheer delight. Grabbed my phone and saw we cut the lead to 4. Flipped the game on, they instantly stretched it back to 12. That was it, I was done for the night. Waited until 13 second left to go back to the game.

so again, you're welcome Brad

Good lord! Hard to understate the importance of coming back like that. That makes a team come together and really believe in each other.

Here’s to Ty making hustle plays all game. Here’s to Harris’ incredible defense. And here’s to TSFJ (can we say that now?) for stepping up as a leader and putting this team on his back.

If you want a good laugh, go read the halftime posts from the game thread.

"This team's going nowhere in March. The tournament is not a given whatsoever."
"Hmmm.. I don’t think I can watch the second half. If we somehow come back to make it competitive, so be it, but I don’t see it from anyone tonight."
"I'm so done with this season."
"This game is over."
"Goodnight. I can’t watch this."
"Well, it was a nice 59 year run."

And the winner is...

"I think TSJ came back too early"

It's like that on here when we are up 30 at half...

I thought we were headed for a repeat of PSU/Mizzou/IU. We are bipolar as bipolar can be but we do NOT get swept by Northwestern around here.

Welcome back, UCLA Shannon. Harris and Rodgers once again bringing the energy.

Now if we could just cut out the stretches of dumb basketball, we'd be a force to be reckoned with.

We can all back away from the ledge. This team is going to the tourney.

That was a really special comeback. You can't do that without heart, hunger, and teamwork. Three things that I questioned us having. We waited all season for a time when we would finally put it together as a TEAM. And we finally got it. We finally got the potential and the possible ceiling. It seems crazy to call a win over Northwestern as a possible season changing win. This was it if I've ever seen one. If we build off of this and this taught us who we are as a TEAM, then we do have promise, we do have a high ceiling, and we can make a run in the dance. Special stuff. Season changing stuff. May we go from here and never look back. Hell of a win. Hell of an effing win.
