Northern Illinois upset No. 14 Buffalo with a buzzer beater Tuesday night thanks to Noah McCarty's last-second layup.

With two seconds left, McCarty cut through two defenders to score on a wide-open layup and put the Huskies ahead 77–75.

Buffalo was down 73–69 with 1:18 left on the clock when it called a timeout. Bulls senior CJ Massinburg hit three free throws with 48 seconds left to bring the game within three points. Seconds later, Massinburg tied the game with a three-pointer, but it wasn't enough to hold off the Huskies.
