How did Wisconsin-UNI end?

Illini · Mar 22, 2005

All I know is that Wisconsin hit the first of two free throws to go up 4 with 3.5 seconds left. Then, Wisconsin scored 3 more points and UNI hit a buzzer beater to lose by 5. Was there a technical foul, or did they steal the inbounds pass? Really curious, even though I did not have a wager on it.

they got the ball out of bounds with 4 seconds or so...passed to half court...dribbled into the front court...some white guy hit a jumper from the free-throw line as time expired.

I know, but how did Wisconsin score the additional points before UNI got the ball back?

I was flipping through the games, and Wisconsin had a 3 point lead and made the first free throw with 3.5 seconds left to clinch the win. It was 84-80 with one free throw left, and I changed to another game. Then I see 87-80, then 87-82, and a final score. I figure the coach must have gone off on the refs once the game was clinched. But I can't remember if you can keep possession in college if you get a techincal. You couldn't before, but I think if it's on the coach, you can now.

I believe they made the second free throw to go up 55-50, then N. Iowa threw the ball away on inbounds without touching anyone and then fouled on Wisconsin's inbounds pass all without any time expiring. Wisconsin makes 2 more free throws to go up 57-50 and then N. Iowa goes length of court and hits 15 ft jumper at buzzer. I could be wrong but I think that is how this game ended. With so many games Thurs and Fri, I was flipping back and forth quite a bit.
