Relive craziest March Madness comeback between Texas A&M, Northern Iowa with Alex Caruso

Alex Caruso often gets the same two questions when it comes to basketball. “They ask me about LeBron,” Caruso said, “and then they ask me how crazy was the Northern Iowa comeback? Those are the two staples.

” The ending of that 2016 game resurfaces on social media every March. Caruso’s third-seeded Texas A&M Aggies trailed No. 11 seed Northern Iowa 69-57 with 44 seconds left before mounting one of the wildest comebacks in NCAA Tournament history.

And it happened right here in Oklahoma City , in the same gym where the 32-year-old Caruso plays his Thunder home games. “It feels completely different,” Caruso said of what was then Chesapeake Energy Arena. “The court is so different.

I don’t even remember what locker we were in for that game. ” CARLSON: Oklahoma City? More like Cinderella City when March Madness comes to town The Thunder is on the road this week as Oklahoma City hosts the first and second rounds of the NCAA Tournament for the first time since Caruso scored 25 points to lift Texas A&M to that improbable 92-88 double-overtime win against Northern Iowa.
