Down one with just over half a minute to play in overtime, Maryland men’s basketball was inbounding the ball near its own bench with a chance to take the lead and come away from a hard-fought game at Nebraska with a win.
Senior guard Hakim Hart looked to graduate guard Jahmir Young, who had come alive in the extra period, but reading his eyes was redshirt freshman walk-on guard Sam Hoiberg. Hoiberg intercepted the pass and took it the other way for a layup, inserting the proverbial dagger in Maryland’s hopes, as the Cornhuskers sealed a 70-66 win from there.
