Just posted this in my thread Enfuego. I had lost a number of 2nd half collapse games yesterday so last night I made N Mex a half time bet am glad I did.
N Mex bettors have to be sick this morning. I can't believe all of the 2nd half collapses yesterday but this one has to be the craziest (exactly why I bet the half rather than game after the earlier games):
Nevada trailed by 13 at the half, by 25 with 11:00 to go, by 17 with 2:42 left in the game and with 1:10 left, New Mexico was up 14 and HAD THE BALL! Then the barrage of 3's occurred....
— With 1:03 left, a walk-on named Charlie Tooley hit a 3, his first-ever college basket.
— With 0:52 left, Marcus Marshall hit a 3 to make score 90-82
— With 0:40 left, Marshall hit another 3-ball; 91-85 Lobos.
— With 0:28 left, Jordan Caroline hit a 3-pointer; 92-88 Lobos.
— With 0:18 left, Marshall banked in a 3-pointer; 94-91 Lobos.
— With 0:07 left, Marshall banked in the game-tying 3-pointer.
In overtime…………
— New Mexico led by 5 with 2:52 left in overtime.
— Down 104-102 with 0:02 left, Caroline nailed a 3-pointer to win the game. Crazy.
