Cam Wynter did it again.
The Penn State guard beat Northwestern with a last-second three pointer in overtime last Wednesday in Evanston, Illinois.
Sunday, in State College, Wynter beat Maryland with a last-second two-pointer in regulation.
Penn State was down by as many as 16 and ended up winning, 65-64. A loss might have been fatal for its NCAA Tournament at-large prospects. A win puts Penn State (19-12, 10-10 Big Ten) firmly on the right side of the bubble.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to some early March Madness that took place in State College.

Not sure I ever saw a player make back to back gane winners like that. Wynter has saved the season.

Penn State Basketball, with its season on life support, reversed every narrative about this program in the last two games.
Good for them.

Poetic that Camren Wynter hits back-to-back game winners to (possibly) send Penn State to the Big Dance.
The Drexel transfer is the only player on the roster that has played in the NCAA Tournament. #WeAre https://t.co/bmtkYyI9EI

At NO POINT did I think Penn State was winning that game. I repeat… HOL-LEE SHIT! Historic game in program history. I am vibrating trying to type this.

After having their hearts ripped out a week ago. Penn State just bounced back to beat two very good basketball teams with big second half comebacks.
