BYU Avoids Late Disaster, Upsets Creighton
After two brutal losses to South Dakota and UVU, BYU pulled the upset by the skin of their teeth in a 83-80 win over #21 Creighton Saturday night in Vegas with another game winner by Dallin Hall.
After going up 79-68 with 3:26 to go, Creighton went on a 12-0 after forcing 6 Cougar turnovers in the final minutes. BYU couldn’t break the Bluejays’ press and Creighton capitalized. With under 30 seconds to go, Dallin Hall took his own putback and hit the shot at the basket with 11 seconds left to put BYU up 81-80. He then grabbed the game-sealing rebound and hit two free throws with under a second left to seal the game.
