Penn State men’s basketball still has a chance to dance.
Evan Mahaffey rebound set up Cam Wynter’s 3, which went in with less than a second left, and Penn State got a much-needed 68-65 overtime win at Northwestern.
Penn State now has one regular-season game left, which is set for Sunday at noon against Maryland at the Bryce Jordan Center.
All the stress that comes with March basketball will be back Sunday, but for now, Penn State fans are happy. Here’s how Twitter reacted to a thrilling Penn State win.

The Big Ten still has a legitimate chance to put 10 teams into the NCAA Tournament.
Penn State moves the needle in Evanston.

Blowing a 19 point lead at home to a team that was 2-7 on the road only to beat a team that is a projected 6 seed at home the very next game is the most Penn State Basketball thing ever.

Penn State is the worst offensive rebounding team in the country. 363 out of 363. They just won cause of an offensive rebound

Penn State's Cam Wynter just drained a corner 3 in OT in Evanston. What month is it?

This sucks. I hate this. I thought the season was over. It is not. It's really not.

Penn State is 9-10 in Big Ten play. For all of the lamenting that has gone on this year, Nittany Lions have done better than nine wins in conference play three times in the last 27 seasons.
