Notre Dame and Boston College squared off in a battle between two of the most disappointing teams in the country this season.

And it turned into a thriller.

Notre Dame forced overtime after Olivier Hanlan fouled Eric Atkins, who hit one-of-two free throws at the end of regulation. The two were squared off again at the end of overtime, and the result was Atkins shredding Hanlan’s ankles and drilling a pull-up three for the win.
