In response to MyOhMighty
Reminded me of another February night, in 2005, when Chris Niesz hit a shot at the buzzer to beat (you guessed it) - Colgate. That Bucknell team was in a funk, having lost 4 of their previous 8 Patriot League games. They rode some of the energy of that Colgate win to - well, you know... Maybe it bodes well for this Bison team.
One thing about that Niesz three at the buzzer is that if the Bison had lost, they would almost certainly have ended up as a 15 seed - and not played Kansas in the first round. Those who watched that Colgate game will likely remember that moments before Niesz's winning shot, Colgate missed the front end of a one-and-one that would have basically clinched the game.
