Elmer Bennett shot. That play required 2 qucik accurate passes AND the shot. That was awesome.

Press conference. Said Thomas passing to Francis was cheating. Said he thought it was just going to be “him versus me.”

I thought to myself at the time, “you got beat by a guard that made a heads up play most would not have the presence of mind to make in that situation, and now you are making fun of him for it. Just tip your cap and move on, you sound like a jackass.”

FWIW I was at the game when Steve Novak did the same.

Also reminded of a key game tying shot with Marquette- Carleton Scott.

Lasz may have had the most unlikely game tying shot this year thanks to Gibbs wedgie.

... in 1981.

The next year, Doc had the second best dunk I’ve ever seen live at the ACC. He hurdled Cecil Rucker, who stood helplessly hoping to take a charge at the dotted line in the key.

There’s a reason they called him Doc.

I was expecting to see Carleton Scott against Marquette, but that one just sent it to overtime. For your viewing pleasure:

This was a remarkably dramatic moment in what was a really fun couple weeks of ND basketball. I'm sure you're right that they limited it to winning shots or this would've been a shoo-in.

however that was not truly a buzzer beater.

The sequence where UCLA missed multiple shots is as famous as the Clay corner jumper.

And it is the best game winning shot in ND history.

Deserves a lot more than 3:30.
