| 8 of 11 Three games from this round could each occupy spots on this list, but the trio belongs together. For the first time in the Big Dance's 67-year history, three regional finals were decided in overtime. Two Final Four-bound teams staged improbable comebacks on the same day: Illinois (which erased a 15-point deficit in the final four minutes against Arizona) and Louisville (which rallied from 20 down against West Virginia). The next day, Kentucky forced overtime with Patrick Sparks' desperation three-pointer (which prompted a seven-minute review to confirm it was indeed a three) before Michigan State prevailed in double OT.
