Houston authored a comeback for the ages at the Final Four Saturday night to top Duke. No matter how much credit you want to give the Cougars, it's also clear the Blue Devils fell apart. That collapse was neatly summed up by one stat.
Duke controlled the game early and took a 34-28 lead into halftime. The Blue Devils expanded on that margin after the break and took a 59-45 lead when guard Tyrese Proctor hit a free throw with 8:17 remaining.
