Crazy Ending: Jackson State Won Against Tulane After Tulane Called A Timeout They Didn't Have In A Tie Game With 1 Second Left

I stand firm on the fact that one play never loses you the game in basketball. Throughout the 40 mins on the hardwood, there are plays, may plays - defensive breakdowns, bad shots, miscommunications, stupid fouls, turnovers etc that you wish you could take back, and when added up all make the difference in. a game, but none individually. So this bonehead play of calling a timeout when you don't have one is for sure the moment that stands out the most and everyone remembers because it's the one that goes viral - but no one will mention the 17 turnovers that go with it or the 9 missed free throws throughout the contest. It's how it goes.
