Not that it'll matter in the NCAA Tournament but Miami came back from 10 down with 42 seconds left to beat Virginia in overtime. Read this last 40 second blurp. Talk about falling apart:
Trailing 53-43 with 42.5 seconds left, Durand Scott hit a 3-pointer. Then Sammy Zeglinski missed a pair of free throws and Miami came back with another 3, this time from Grant to cut the deficit to 53-49 with 23.1 seconds left.
The Cavaliers turned it over in the backcourt and Julian Gamble (11 points) dunked home a basket on the inbound play to cut it to 53-51. Then Scott stole Jontel Evans' inbound pass under the basket and scored on a layup while being fouled to tie it with 13.9 seconds left.
He missed the free throw, but Zeglinski couldn't control the rebound as it bounced off his foot and out of bounds with 11.6 seconds left.
Grant lost the ball when it slipped out of his hands on a shot attempt, giving it back to Virginia with 1.3 seconds left. But again, the Hurricanes stole the inbound when Gamble jumped in front of Will Sherrill's pass near midcourt before missing a desperate heave at the horn.

Pittsburgh Loses
Pittsburgh loses and Kansas is on the ropes. Does this open up a 1 seed for Notre Dame to grab if they win the Big East? What about Purdue or Wisconsin if they win the B1G 10? Even North Carolina might be creeping a bit.
Two More Bids and Marquette
Long Island and Northern Colorado grab auto-bids while it's now safe to say Marquette has done enough. It's all about seeding now. How about a 9 seed with a second round match-up with Ohio State?

BRIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There's no 10 in B1G. Only Leaders and Legends. Like "Teflon Vest" Jim Tressel. Or Bartime Bert Bielema. Come on, get with it!
Two More Bids Tonight.
Northeast: Long Island vs Robert Morris
Not much going on here. Long Island might be better equipped for a first round tourney upset but I wouldn't bet on it.
Big Sky: Montana vs Northern Colorado
Even worse here as both are probably going to be seeded as a 15 seed. Long Island at least has a chance to be a 14.
And see ya later Nebraska. Have fun next year in the B1G 10.
