A layup from Pope gave Oregon State a 59-54 lead with 1:33 remaining in regulation but the Beavers didn't score again until Pope hit two free throws for a 61-58 lead with 5 seconds left. Troy's Dowd then banked a tying 3-pointer with one second left to send the game to overtime.
It was Pope's turn for dramatics near the end of the first extra period as his jumper tied the score at 72 with nine seconds left. He delivered again in the second overtime on a night in which he missed 10 of his first 11 shots and finished 5-for-18 from the field.
