Nebraska's Buzzer-Beater Stuns Vandy

0:00On March 22nd, Vanderbilt fell just short to Nebraska in the second round of the NCAA tournament, losing 74-72 on A. Heartbreaking half-court buzzer beater that rimmed out. Tyler Tanner's desperate he from beyond mid-court looked good before spinning out, ending the Commodore's run, and sending the Huskers to their first. Ever? Sweet 16. The game stayed tight until the final seconds, when Nebraska's Brayden Frager drove in for a layup with 2.2 seconds left to take a 2-point. Led. Vanderbilt had led by 5, with 5 minutes, 34 seconds remaining, but the Huskers mounted a strong comeback down the stretch. Tanner led all scores with 27 points, and felt the shot was on target, similar to one that missed earlier this season against Missouri. He called it a hard-fought battle in front of an electric crowd, and it's stunned to end so close. Vanderbilt coach Mark Buyington noted they were just one play, or one inch, from advancing to their first sweet 16 since 2007.

1:00Nebraska, who started the year 20-0 and reached number 5 in A.P. Pol, showed their resilience once again. The Huskers now head to Houston for the South region's semi-finals on Thursday, facing the winner between top-seated Florida and ninth-seated Iowa. What a way for Nebraska to keep their March Magic alive.
