It came down to this -- 3.6 seconds and the Vikings needed to traverse the entire court. Well, they made it to the other end and the ball reached the right guy’s hands. Jrue Holiday had a good look, took a jumper from 18-feet out and missed. The buzzer sounded. Game over.

Campbell Hall (17-5), ranked No. 5 in the Southland by The Times, lost to South Atlanta (18-1), 78-77, in double overtime Saturday night at Pauley Pavilion in the nightcap of the Pangos Dream Classic. Holiday led all scorers with 35 points. He also had 11 assists.

Now take a gander at the sickest line of the night: South Atlanta’s Derrick Favors had 32 points and 29 rebounds.

Well, the lights are going off here -- and I’m going home.
