Things looked bleak for the Lipscomb men’s basketball team with 3:46 left in Tuesday’s NIT semifinal game at Madison Square Garden.

Wichita State appeared to be in control, but the Bisons had a final surprise for the Shockers.

Powered by senior leader Garrison Mathews, Lipscomb closed the game on a 14-0 run to steal a 71-64 victory and advance to the NIT title game.

The Bisons will battle Texas for the championship Thursday at 6 p.m. CT on ESPN.
