Buzzer-beater gives No. 8 Michigan St. 58-55 win over No. 16 Maryland

COLLEGE PARK, Md.>> Tre Holloman made a buzzer-beater from beyond midcourt to give No. 8 Michigan State a 58-55 win over No. 16 Maryland in a sensational finish Wednesday night.

Holloman’s turnover in the backcourt helped the Terrapins (21-7, 11-6 Big Ten) tie the game with 42.1 seconds remaining, and after a miss by Michigan State’s Jaxon Kohler, Maryland had a chance to win it with the shot clock off. But Ja’Kobi Gillespie missed a 3-pointer, the Spartans (23-5, 14-3) rebounded and Holloman had enough time to put up a shot from a few feet behind midcourt.

No. 1 Auburn 106, Ole Miss 76>> Johni Broome scored 24 points, Chad Baker-Mazara added 22 and No. 1 Auburn defeated Mississippi 106-76.

After several weeks of cold shooting in home games, Auburn (26-2, 14-1 Southeastern Conference) made 11 of 21 attempts from 3-point range. The game started with a 3 from Baker-Mazara, a game-time decision due to an undisclosed issue.

Vanderbilt 86, No. 12 Texas A&M 84>> Tyler Nickel scored 21 points on a career-best seven 3-pointers and Vanderbilt held on for an 86-84 upset over No. 12 Texas A&M.

The Commodores (19-9, 7-8 Southeastern Conference) were ahead by seven with 12 seconds to go when Zhuric Phelps made a layup before Texas A&M got the ball back on a turnover by Tyler Tanner. Phelps then sank a 3-pointer to cut the lead to 86-84 with 1.5 seconds remaining.

Vanderbilt’s Jason Edwards turned the ball over and it went out of bounds on the A&M end of the court, giving the Aggies the ball back with 0.2 seconds left. But the inbounds pass was grabbed by the Commodores to secure the victory.

No. 13 Clemson 83, Notre Dame 68>> Ian Schieffelin had a career high 24 points as No. 13 Clemson won a single-season program-record 15th Atlantic Coast Conference game with an 83-68 victory over Notre Dame.

Schieffelin, who also had nine rebounds, rescued the Tigers down the stretch of the first half with four straight baskets — his teammates has missed their previous 12 attempts — for a 41-31 halftime lead that Notre Dame (12-16, 6-11) could not overcome.

No. 18 Memphis 84, Rice 72>> Dain Dainja scored a career-best 25 points and had 10 rebounds, and No. 18 Memphis used a late 10-0 run to beat Rice 84-72. PJ Haggerty added 21 points for Memphis (23-5, 13-2 American Athletic Conference), and Nicholas Jourdan finished with 19 points and nine rebounds. The Tigers have won 10 of 11.

No. 22 Arizona 83, Utah 66>> Caleb Love hit six 3-pointers and scored 23 points, leading No. 22 Arizona to an 83-66 blowout over Utah on Wednesday night in the Utes’ first game since coach Craig Smith was fired.

Utah (15-13, 7-10 Big 12) fired Smith on Monday and named assistant Josh Eilert as interim coach. The change did little good against the Wildcats (19-9, 13-4).
