Blue Collar U at The Basketball Tournament

Recommended Posts

Blue Collar U is the alumni team from UB featuring players from their golden era with Nate Oats. They also won last year's TBT and the $1 million dollar prize. Today they played the opening round game against Big 5, which is a team made up of Philly schools (Temple, St. Joes, LaSalle, etc.)  After trailing all game, they rallied to win it 78-77. Still alive.

 

(FYI, TBT uses something called the Elam Ending. Whatever the score is after the first timeout under 4 minutes left to play, 8 points get added to the leading score. That is the target number to win. So in this game Big 5 led 70-60. Big 5 only needed 8 points to win while BCU needed 18. This comeback was the largest Elam Ending comeback in tournament history.)
