Cincinnati Basketball: Brutal Butler Buzzer Beater Buries Bearcats 78-76

The now formerly 17th ranked Cincinnati Bearcats lost to the #25 Butler Bulldogs 78-76 on a Roosevelt Jones buzzer beater. Which Roosevelt Jones and what buzzer beater? This Roosevelt Jones and buzzer beater.

Ugh.

Just brutal. It would have felt less gut wrenching had Butler pulled up and drained a half court jumper as time expired. Instead, Jones bullied Octavius Ellis, a player on the Cincinnati Bearcats who slog in the mud better than any team in college basketball, for the rock and powered his way to the rim for an easy, game winning layup.
