The Final Four produced two incredible finales. First, Virginia advanced past Auburn when Kyle Guy made three free throws with 0.6 seconds left, after a controversial sequence sent him to the line, and Virginia beat Auburn 63-62 in the Final Four. Auburn led 61-60 after Guy made an off-balance 3 with 7.6 seconds left. The Tigers’ Jarred Harper then made a foul shot and Auburn had fouls to give and did so twice. On one of them, it looked as if  Virginia’s Ty Jerome double-dribbled into a decisive turnover. Jerome also might have been fouled before the mishandle. But there was no whistle for either, setting the stage for Guy. On to the Final, where Virginia connected on a game-tying 3-pointer with 12 seconds remaining in regulation and then used an 11-0 run in overtime to win its first national title.
