Of all the wild finishes in recent college basketball history, it’s hard to imagine a night like the one Florida International University had on Thursday.
Both the men’s and women’s Golden Panther games ended in identical scores of 88-87 on buzzer beaters after multiple overtimes against the same opponent – University of Texas-El Paso. What are the odds?
The FIU men lost 88-87 in double overtime in El Paso.
The FIU women won 88-87 in triple overtime at home when sophomore point guard Kristian Hudson launched a desperation shot just inside the midcourt stripe at the buzzer.
