You have to see the absurd final 6.9 seconds of Oregon State’s win over UCLA

In the final season of the Pac-12 as we know it, the conference is playing women’s basketball at an incredibly high level. In this past week’s first top 16 seed reveal by the NCAA selection committee, five Pac-12 teams were projected to host first-round games. The league has stars like JuJu Watkins and Alissa Pili, and great head coaches like Tara VanDerveer and Cori Close.

All of this is to say, the Pac-12 is extremely competitive this year, which has led to some great games and absolutely wild finishes.

Friday night was the latest example, as the end of the Oregon State versus UCLA game turned into pure madness, the kind of stuff we typically have to wait until March to see.

Here’s how the last 6.9 seconds went:

Angela Dugalic hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key to give UCLA a one-point lead.

Talia von Oelhoffen connected on a layup in traffic to retake the lead for Oregon State. 2.3 seconds remain.

On a sideline-out-of-bounds play, Lauren Betts swishes a long mid-range jumper, giving UCLA a one-point advantage with 1.1 seconds left.

Von Oelhoffen connects on a 3-pointer at the buzzer to seal the win for Oregon State.

See for yourself. It’s absurd.

IN 6.9 SECONDS,

there were, 4 made baskets, 4 lead changes, and a buzzer beater!

Yea, in only 6.9 seconds! It happened between #9 UCLA and #11 Oregon State! pic.twitter.com/5N6rZ4kXJ6
