Anyone recall "stealing" a game like today ?

....lRemember Jimmy Edney on the clock and Johnny Collins I think going full court with about 3 seconds.....Blackham was pumped!

Boomer you asked in another thread how we ended up being victorious. Look at link I posted earlier in thread. Video of final play is linked there.

If you wanna talk stealing a game, the sbc tourney game against Georgia State is the one that comes to my mind. We were out played and out coached down the stretch and Payton single handed put the cajuns on his back

Here is Twitter video of winning play for those of you who may not have seen it.

Also, I hope KPEL has archived Jay's call of this play. If so, I bet it is replayed often on the call in shows come Monday.

Thanks for the twitter video; I watched the game but had Jay on audio synced up.

Watching the replay I saw where their guy also stepped out of bounds so even if he caught the ball we would have gotten it out of bounds. BUT the play Butts made was spectacular. Like Jay said postgame, a lot of players have missed those layups because they try to hurry it. Butts looked in total control and banked it.

GEAUX CAJUNS!

Way to hustle Cajuns. The guys didn't give up.

We didn't exactly 'steal it' but Michael Allen's game winning bomb at the buzzer against W. Kentucky in Cajundome (early 90's) also sticks out.

We deserved to win the game yesterday. The charging call against Russell was awful, typical of a Saturday in the Sunbelt.

Dou Gueye hitting that shot a UTA comes to mind.

Dion Rainey hitting that corner jumper at Blackham in the NIT against UAB.

Earl Watkins hitting a bomb, don't remember against who.

None of these were off a turnover though, but I think were game winning shots, as Cajuns were behind. At least that is my memory.

Earl's shot was long ang high enough you had time to emotionally go from "what the heck" to "it's going in".

I was at that game. Against Stetson, if I recall correctly. Their coach was incredulous in the postgame. He was like, “how the hell do you dribble the length of the court and get that shot off?”

Great reminder of a special win. I think steal of an inbounds pass was key there too. We scored, stole the ball, passed to Shawn Long who made layup, got fouled and made free throw. That helped force OT. That was a special afternoon in New Orleans since victory was against Panthers.
