MINNEAPOLIS - Shots in the driveway and the sign hanging in the Virginia practice gym were Kyle Guy’s first thoughts when he realized a last-second whistle would send him to the free-throw line with a chance to lift Virginia into the national championship game.
“I don’t really have any words for how I feel. I’ve been pinching myself the whole time we’re in Minneapolis because it doesn’t feel real.” “My opinion as an administrator is, if that’s a foul, call it,” Auburn coach Bruce Pearl said. “But don’t let it define the game. Then you’re taking away from Ty Jerome. Taking away from Anfernee McLemore with 12 rebounds. Taking away from Bryce Brown almost leading us back to a great victory.Before Guy sealed the win, he made a 3 from the opposite corner, curling around a baseline screen.
Auburn’s furious rally in the final five minutes helped stage the dramatic finish, set up when Brown made three 3-pointers, including the go-ahead triple with 1:56 on the clock to give the Tigers a 59-57 lead.Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome, who had a game-high 21 points, was fouled near halfcourt with 1.5 seconds left, when Virginia coach Tony Bennett called timeout to set up Guy’s last-second 3 in the corner.
