We're on the scene in San Antonio, where the national title game between Florida and Houston could come down to the NCAA Tournament's best clutch player against the country's best clutch defense.

I gotta post those last few minutes of the game... though SO many time outs. I found this edit online that kinda cuts through all that, but wow... the point difference, then a few missed shots and free throws turned the whole thing around.

Bloody nail-biter of a game, and Houston was behind for most of it. Go Cougars!!!

Houston’s suffocating defense wiped away a 14-point deficit over the final eight minutes and Duke’s title hopes in a 70-67 comeback win over the Blue Devils at the Final Four. Houston advances to Monday night's national title game.
