Alabama upsets North Carolina in epic 4-OT game with craziness, controversy

Posted Nov 27, 2022
It took four overtimes and plenty of craziness, but Alabama won an epic endurance test with the help of controversy in a heartbreaker for UNC. A goaltending call on a Caleb Love drive that could have won the game with 8.9 seconds left was reversed. R.J. Davis missed a desperation shot at the buzzer as the Crimson Tide took a 103--101 four-overtime win. (Tar Heel Tribune)
