With time running out in overtime against Kansas State, Crawford heaved up a 3-ball from a mile away … and nailed it. It forced the game into double OT, where Kansas State eventually pulled away.
Though Crawford and Xavier lost, the rest of the country won, because not only did we get to witness a great game, but we got to witness that great game with Gus Johnson on the play-by-play.

Comment of the day
One guy who was quite familiar with March Madness is former Kentucky Wildcat Antoine Walker. Since making more than $100 million in the NBA, Walker’s lost all of it due to gambling debts and other mistakes. It’s a sad, sad story, without question, yet some people are ready to point fingers … at a former head coach and a former president.
“it’s Rick Pitino and Bush’s FAULT”
