The Pittsburgh Panthers men's basketball team falls to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in the final seconds, 55-54, during the first round of the ACC tournament. Unfortunately, the story of this contest wasn't the game itself, but instead a controversial officiating call in the final second that prevented the game from going into overtime.

Notre Dame hoped it could beat Pittsburgh so it wouldn't be one-and-done in the ACC Tournament. It probably didn't hope that such a win would be the result of a controversy. Nonetheless, it surely is grateful for the 55-54 victory that will allow it to play North Carolina in the second round.
