Happy for our Evanston neighbors getting their first March Madness win over Vanderbilt. There's hope for basketball in the state of Illinois.02-13-banana

Makes me ill to say this but I feel good for them too, mainly because of the Collins connection. I really am a huge Doug Collins fan. And because Northwestern kept my perfect bracket alive

Happy for them. Crazy ending. Not smart basketball by the Commodores. I thought they were supposed to be smart.

Definitely a mental lapse by the Vanderbilt at the end. NU lead most of the game even though it was close.

Vandy lost versus NU winning.
I guess he must be a PE major.

Vandy calling its last timeout with over 7minutes left was a killer down the stretch!

What does a Vandy player see?
Vandy 66 NU 65
Down by 1 and I should foul.
Idiot.

I feel bad for the kid, must have thought they were down by 3 and their basket put them down by 1, so still needing to foul. Quite a mental lapse, but man, he's going to live with that one for a while.

Very Chris Webberish, at least Webber went on to have a very good pro career. This young man doesn't seem like he will have that chance. I feel bad for him, but that mistake really helped our neighbors. I'm always happy to see Phillips do well. NIU was fortunate to have his service for a while.

Does anyone remember in the 80's when a B ball player transferred from NIU and played in the tournament? I believe he had a chance to tie the game in the last seconds from the free throw line and missed. Last name Thomas I think.
He cried on the way off the court.

It didn't look like it really bothered him much. He seemed like he was in another galaxy.

Looking at the replay I think he saw Bryce Drew pointing at the kid with the ball and fouled him. Bryce was pointing at the kid in a way to tell someone to pick the dribbler up and stop the ball from advancing. Brain cramp either way.
