Memphis-Kansas overtime

1:58 – Memphis has only been able to muster two points in OT thus far. The way they’ve played with the lead, there’s almost a chance they’re better off playing from behind.

1:05 – Maybe not. Rush grabs his own rebound and scores after a breakaway.

0:45.1 – Douglas-Roberts has orders to foul apparently… but why? Memphis is down only three with plenty of time to go and as Packer says, the Tigers looked pretty solid defensively.

0:12.8 – Kansas at the line up five. Cue depressing shots of Memphis players on the bench realizing that Memphis players are not shooting the free throws for Kansas. This game certainly looks over.

0:00 – 75-68. Memphis loses. Roy Williams cries. Kansas reasserts its position as one of the top basketball schools of all time.

You can't help but feel bad watching Memphis players get covered in confetti. Someone should have provided them umbrellas.

and another p.s. since I just left you one further down.... for the record when "shot of the game" was announced I knew Memphis had lost. that's just asking for trouble
