You know that feeling when you're walking home from the bar or a restaurant and you're only a block or so away from your house and your body alerts you that it's time to potty? Your body knows you're almost home. It knows what's so close. That's what happened in college basketball this past weekend. College basketball knows that March is right around the corner so it gave us 5 unbelievable buzzer beaters and one of them may have saved a season. We dive into all of those and then we look at some of the bubble teams in Lunardi's latest bracket. I have a bone to pick with a few teams and I'm baffled. Stay tuned, folks... Jerome is next!
