BEVERLY HILLS (MI) – It seems like it has been an eternity, but at the same time not that long ago since your University of Dayton Flyers mounted a comeback for the ages against the University of Nevada in the First Round of the NCAA Tournament.
The record book says it was tied for the 5th largest deficit overcome in Big Dance history:
1. 2012 first round: BYU 78, Iona 72 (25 points)

BEVERLY HILLS (MI) – In 2004 when his Boston Red Sox team was down 3-0 to the hated New York Yankees, the eminent philosopher David “Big Papi” Ortiz summed up his squad’s situation thusly:
“You either ride or you die.”
By comparison, your Dayton Flyers were down to Nevada by a mere 17 points with only 7 ½ minutes remaining. To put that in perspective, UD’s win probability was 1.5%:

 Grant Gives the Mick in 91-86 OT Thriller Over VCU |
|
Mar 09, 2024 - 2:20 PM - by Chris R
|
“It was just toughness and grittiness. They weren’t gonna be denied tonight….the sum becoming greater than the individual parts – that’s teamwork.”
That was UD head coach Anthony Grant’s observation in the post-game press conference following Dayton’s blood-tingling and electrifying 91-86 overtime victory over VCU on Friday night, securing UD’s second undefeated home season in four years.
