Marcus freaking Paige!!! UNC won tonight with terrible FT shooting and only getting good play from Paige and JP. Stupid foul by Lmac to end regulation. JMM with another bad foul toward the end of OT....was really hard to say what was going on there though. Nice win UNC!

BTW have to give props, T.J. Warren is a bad kid

Agreed, State had that game in their laps, two dumb fouls by our "leaders."

Very fortunate to get that one. Paige was 7-10 from 3PT land in the second half. And that last layup my goodness. ONIONS!!!

Glad I DVR'D the last 3 minutes of regulation and OT babyyyy!

In looking at it I noticed Paige was fouled on that last layup...wonder if the refs would have called it if he missed the shot, probably not...just something that came to mind. Game shouldn't have been that close, they need to get better at the FT line for sure.

Man Michigan has caught a few bounces when it's mattered this year. But all Purdue had to do was make *a* free throw.

That was their only free throw miss of the game. 17/18.

UCLA announces suspensions of Jordan Adams and Kyle Anderson for violation of team rules. Both out versus Oregon tonight. This will be huge for Oregon tonight, they are back on the bubble again. A win tonight would be huge for the Ducks.

Arkansas has to win the SEC tourney to make it to the NCAA tourney.

I'm over this Kentucky team, you wanna show me something, beat Florida. All this team is at best is pretty good. This team is destined for nothing more then a 2nd round exit.

Two years in a row we have had a ****ty point guard. Ullis can't get here fast enough.

What a shot by UCLA to send it to overtime.

By Dan Loumena February 28, 2014, 4:00 a.m.

Fans spilled onto the court and several took part in a brawl that erupted after Utah Valley State defeated New Mexico State, 66-61 in overtime, with first place on the line in a Western Athletic Conference basketball game Thursday night.
The altercation in Orem, Utah, was ignited by New Mexico State's K.C. Ross-Miller, who threw the basketball about 20 feet downcourt in apparent frustration after the buzzer sounded, striking Utah Valley State's Holton Hunsaker, the coach's son.
D.K. Eldridge of New Mexico State became engulfed in a horde of students who had swarmed the court, most presumably to celebrate the victory while others took part in fisticuffs.
Video of the incident doesn't make it particularly clear as to who first started throwing punches, but it's apparent that many were thrown, several by Utah Valley State students and spectators.
At least one New Mexico State player tumbled to the court but coaches, administrators and security personnel separated players and fans within 30 seconds after the start of the melee.
Utah Valley State's Keawe Enos made three free throws with 4.3 seconds left in the second half to force overtime. Ben Aird scored six of his game-high 21 points in overtime to help lift the Wolverines (17-10, 11-3) to the victory over the Aggies (21-9, 10-4).
