12 over 5: Purdue falls

We have an early contender for best game of the 2016 NCAA Tournament.

No. 12 seed Little Rock used what will be one of the more memorable comebacks in first-round history to knock off No. 5 Purdue 85-83 in double overtime.

With 3:33 left in regulation of Purdue's game against Little Rock, it looked like the Boilermakers were going to pull out the win easily. It was 65-52, and the game was well in control as the Trojans offense scuffled along and struggled to get clean looks against Purdue's size inside.
