During the college basketball game between Akron and South Dakota State, an Akron player came up with a steal but then missed a layup at the buzzer that could have won the game. Instead, the game went to overtime tied at 70. In overtime, Akron had the ball with 15 seconds left with the game tied at 80. They missed a three pointer but the same player who missed the layup earlier came flying in for an offensive rebound and was able to draw a foul. He ended up making one of two free throws with just two seconds left and Akron won the game 81-80.
