BYU men's basketball: Cougars score a thrilling 75-73 overtime win over San Francisco

PROVO — As frustrating as BYU's play was through about 39 minutes of Saturday's game against visiting San Francisco, the final 39 seconds of regulation were indeed spectacular and absolutely improbable. The Cougars managed to get the game into overtime as a result, and then take a 75-73 win in a game that won't be forgotten soon by those in attendance or by the players and coaches involved.

The Cougars managed to close a six-point gap in the game's final 39 seconds of regulation, with Elijah Bryant swishing through a 3-pointer from the elbow to tie things up at 65-65 with 5.
