Seton Hall blows an 8-point lead in 77-71 NCAA Tournament loss to Arkansas | Rapid reaction

GREENVILLE, S.C. -- Seton Hall looked like a team that wouldn't just reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 13 years, but actually do some damage when they got there.

They had taken an eight-point lead with time ticking off the clock in the second half against Arkansas, seemingly scoring at will against the eighth-seeded Razorbacks.

And then?

Then, over the final 6:47, the Pirates couldn't buy a basket. They scored just three points during that stretch, watching as their dreams of a second-round matchup against top-seeded North Carolina disappeared.
