Instead of posting these separately, here are a pair of dramatic finishes from this great night of basketball.
We start in Hartford, Connecticut. The UConn Huskies were tied with Cincinnati in the AAC quarterfinals. Everyone who knows anything about college basketball knew that Ryan Boatright would take UConn’s final shot. And take it he did:
Ryan Boatright just, don’t, care. https://t.co/88LcYDEQiq

As a Cincinnati fan, I did not enjoy that.
Oklahoma and Iowa State played yet another dramatic game in the Big 12 semifinals. Down by 2 in a scramble situation, the Sooners looked like they had a chance to tie the score. Ryan Spangler was WIDE OPEN under the basket but:
Noooooooooooo Oklahoma this was POINT BLANK: http://t.co/bpy4nVgx05 https://t.co/jC0XKJO3EP

It looks like he lost the ball a little going up. No matter what the situation was, it was a brutal loss for the Sooners. Another brutal loss against Iowa State.
The Cyclones advance to the Big 12 final where they will take on Kansas.
