Buddy's two big defensive plays = huge!

[NMSooner'80]

1. Blocked a layup to end the first half and keeping the game tied at 34-34.
2. Deflected WVU's quick in-bounds play long enough to keep them from getting off a decent shot, after Lattin's tip-in for the lead. But, that said, it's lucky no one from OU was near that kid who tried the desperation heave at the horn, otherwise, those gutless zebras would have probably called a three-shot foul.

You are right

When Buddy deflected that pass, it looked like he was the only OU player not already celebrating. Not that I blame them because it probably didn't make a difference. It was a heads-up play by Buddy.

Not Buddy, but Jordan's steal from behind late in the game took a page out of WVU's book. Great play by Jordan!

He also had that block on a 3 pointer that led to a shot clock violation for WVU.

I think if he doesn't deflect it, they have a decent look from 3 for the win. Great play!

Maybe. They would have had a shot instead of a throw.
