Twitter reacts to Michigan knocking out Houston on buzzer-beater

March Madness may have started slowly this year, but it’s certainly earning its name now.

Michigan knocked out Houston with a deep buzzer-beater by Jordan Poole to beat the Cougars 64-63 on Saturday. Houston appeared to have the game in hand, but they made the fatal flaw of missing two free throws that could have put the game out of reach. Compounding that, they failed to guard the inbound pass, allowing Michigan to get a decent look. Poole took care of the rest.

Put a man on the inbounder. Dear god, we learned that 26 years ago.

Epic choke job by Houston

Two things for future reference

1) Make your free throws
2) Guard the inbounder

Especially 2! Unbelievable how stupid these highly-paid coaches are sometimes
