Could someone post a link to that video of Novak's shot against ND in January of 2006? I was having a discussion today about great buzzer beaters in NCAA Tournament history (Laettner, Bryce Drew, James Forrest, Tyus Edney) and wanted to reference the best buzzer beater I can remember (at least for me!)... Steve Novak.
Thanks in advance.
Yeah let me dig it up real quick.

So were you with this issue.
We all live with tired people.
if only he were still with us!!! what a shot off the dribble!! i have yet to think of someone doing that since he's been graduated :/
Christian Laetner vs. Kentucky and Slick Rick was probably the most famous - wait, i take that back, how about man, the name escapes me now - the missed shot by NC State in 1983. It was an airball and it was caught in front of the basket by Charles(?) and put it in at the buzzer to win and Jim Valvano in the famous video clip comes rushing onto the court looking desperately for someone to hug!
Honorable mentions:
Danny Ainge length of the court dribble, drive to the hoop to lead BYU over the Irish - I think that was 1980
Butch Lee length of the court pass to Jerome Whithead in the semis vs. UNC-Charlotte to put it in to win.
Some other great ones:
UConn's Tate George catches a length of the court pass from Scott Burrell and hit an 18 foot jumper for a one point win, all in 1 second in a regional semifinal against Clemson in 1990. Two days later George muffs a steal on a Hurley pass thrown right to him out of bounds allowing Christian Laettner to bury UConn in OT on the ensuing inbounds pass with a double pump 15 footer at the buzzer to give Duke a one point win.
Tyus Edney's coast to coast against Missouri to pull out a one point victory the year UCLA beat Arkansas in the final.
Bryce Drew nailed one to win a first round game for Valpo on the basketball version of the hook and lateral. Don't remember the opponent.
What was the one they always show in commercials that Al called? ("Holy mackerel!) I think it was a Georgia Tech win.

Probably James Forrest referred to in the first post above since he was at GT
