With 1:48 left, Casey Morsell made a free throw for 14 seed Oakland Grizzlies to give them a 64-63 lead.

NC State’s Michael O’Connell drove to the basket with the shot clock running down and made the layup and got fouled. His free throw put the Wolfpack up 66-64 with 54 seconds.

Jack Gohlke got fouled on the other side of the court and hit his free throws to tie the game.

NC State got the ball to DJ Burn like they wanted, but his layup was just a little strong giving Oakland what looked like the final possession. But Chris Conway threw the ball out of bounds with 2 seconds left. After a replay, it looked like it clearly went off the NC State defender, but the call on the court stood. Casey Morsell put up a half court prayer that went off the backboard and rim and fell to the ground – meaning five more minutes between the two double digit seeds trying to make it to the Sweet 16.
