Kimbal's three the other night set me thinking of other Bison buzzer beaters of the past. Starting with the beginning of the scholarship era, here are ones I can think of, with the qualification that they had to be within the final two seconds to win a game - or to tie it IF the Bison then won in OT.
- 2004-05 With the score tied, Charles Lee hit a jumper at the buzzer to beat Niagara
- 2004-05 Niesz hit a three at the buzzer to beat Colgate by one point.
- 2007-08 Shazier hit a tying three at the buzzer at Colgate, and Bison won in OT.
- 2007-08 Griffin hit the 40-footer in the third OT at Navy in the tournament to give the Bison a one-point win. Bingo!
- 2010-11 Muscala hit a three at the buzzer off the full court pass from Willman to win at Richmond by one point.
- 2010-11 Muscala hit a jump shot with one second left and the score tied to beat Holy Cross.
- 2012-13 Muscala hit a follow-up shot in the final second to win by one at AU.
2017-18 Mackenzie hit a three at the buzzer to finish off the miracle comeback vs Colgate.
Also some honorable mentions. Huge shots that happened earlier.
- 2004-05 Charles Lee hits huge three with 15 seconds left at Yale to get game to OT and starts an 11-game winning streak.
- 2004-05 Badmus hits three with six seconds left to beat Lehigh by two.
- 2004-05 McNaughton vs Kansas. No need to say more.
- 2014-15 John Azzinaro hits tie-breaking three with 11 seconds left to beat 1st place Navy. Azzinaro hit threes on three consecutive possessions to turn a 6-point deficit into a 3-point win.

I'm sure I missed some. Who can add some more?

Not quite in the same category but:
Bryson Johnson's 3 vs. Arizona with Bucknell up 4 under a minute to play.
Bryson's two 3's seconds apart (with Ryan Hill drawing a charge on McCollum in between) vs. Lehigh in the championship game to pull Bucknell within 1.
If we include the women, there is the famous four buzzer beaters in 1 week 4 years ago vs. HC, Navy (twice) and Army. Also, the two against Lehigh two years ago - Slagus to tie in regulation and English to win in OT. Bison came from 17 down in the 4th quarter to win in OT.

Forgot all about that one. Iirc that was the game where the Bison arrived very late due to a major accident on Route 1 in NJ.

Video of all four buzzer beaters: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YU7a7E-GwwM The final one, by Shelby Romine vs Army, was amazing.
Danny Will is a really good announcer.

137, you are correct about the bus arriving very late. I don't remember how much later the game started, but I think that it was around 30-45 minutes late. My children were very small then, and they were bouncing off the walls with boredom. But what a great finish!
