The Basketball Tournament’s 64-team field whittled its way down to two.
Left standing were Forever Coogs and Carmen’s Crew, two talented squads remaining to battle in Sunday’s championship game in Philadelphia.
Carmen’s Crew was a 2.5-point favorite to win the game, and in the end Vegas was pretty much on the mark.
Forever Coogs took the early lead, but Carmen’s Crew battled back by owning the second and third quarters with tough defense and excellent ball movement.
While the fourth quarter was a tough battle, Carmen’s Crew — a team made up mostly of former Ohio State stars, including Buckeyes legend Jared Sullinger — proved to be too much, walking away with a 69-65 victory and the $1 million prize.
