In case you missed the dramatic double-overtime classic between Xavier and Kansas State last night, here are the highlights. And by "highlights," I mean, two minutes and 59 seconds of Gus Johnson yelling, screaming and going insane. The game was the perfect nightcap to another HUGE event that took place during the day: the celebration of the 15th anniversary of the Victoria's Secret catalog.

OK, let me see if I can explain this story. Remember a couple of weeks back when a Kansas assistant coach gave porn star Samantha Ryan courtside tickets to a game? Well, last week, said porn star posted a video in which she gave the top five reasons why it's better to be a Kansas fan than a Kentucky fan. KentuckySportsRadio.com then posted the top 5 reasons being a UK fan is better than being Samantha Ryan. The actress did not take kindly to that and had her lawyers threaten to sue the site if they did not take down the list.

Live TV Video Of The Day
FunnyOrDie.com spoofs some of the famous sports rants we've heard through the years. As a bonus, the clip stars Modern Family's Ty Burrell, which gives me the chance to tell you that if you don't watch Modern Family, you are seriously missing out. Also, this video contains very, very strong language since it quotes Mike Tyson, so you are warned.
