Talk about a good game. If you missed the #20 Syracuse Orange take on #4 UConn Huskies then you lose!!! This was one of the best games I ever seen. The game was decided in SIX OVERTIMES. Where do you start with this game? Lets see....
The game started at 9:36 p.m. and ended at 1:22 a.m.
With 1.1 seconds left in the 2nd half and the score tied at 71, Syracuse threw a cross court pass, that was deflected by a UConn defender and knocked right into the hands of Eric Devendorf (22 points) of Syracuse, who hit a 3-pointer as the buzzer went off. All the Syracuse players ran on the court thinking the game was over, but after further review, Devendorf didn't release the shot before the buzzer, sending the game into overtime. This game was finally decided 6 overtime periods later, leaving Syracuse the winner in this upset, 127-117. The leading scorers were Jonny Flynn from Syracuse with 34 and 11 assists and A.J. Price from UConn with 33 and 10 assists.
A total of 8 players fouled out in this 70 minute battle.
