| 2nd Half - :00 |
| The Runnin' Rebels will now advance to the round of Sweet-16, where they will play the winner of the Oregon-Winthrop game in St. Louis. The key to the Rebels win here today was the way they resonded when the Badgers, who had been trailing the entire game, took a 5-point lead mid-way through the 2nd half. UNLV didn't panic and start throwing up bad shots, but even when they did, the shots went in. |
| 2nd Half - :00 |
| White cooly hits both free throws and following three missed shots by the Badgers, the Runnin' Rebels come running out of the pack with both the ball and the upset victory here in the second round over the 2nd-seeded Wisconsin Badgers, 74-68. |
| 2nd Half - :24 |
| Terry comes up big again for UNLV, this time he hits a floater in the paint, putting the Rebels back up by five. Flowes hit 1 of 2 free throws on the other end, but the desperate Badgers must now foul on purpose to stop the clock. |
| 2nd Half - :39 |
| Taylor hits a jumper and one, cutting the Rebels lead to 3 points. UNLV calls timeout, as Lon Kruger wants to talk it over. |
| 2nd Half - 1:35 |
| The Rebels are taking the air out of the ball working the clock down, then boom, Curtis Terry hits a 3-pointer. The only thing preventing the shot from being the proverbial "dagger" is Taylor quickly answered with a three on the other end. |
