The Bulldogs battled hard for 45 minutes only to see the Argos sink a three at the overtime buzzer to put a dagger in the Bulldogs hopes of an upset victory. The Bulldog offense and defense put a complete game together going toe-to-toe with the high-scoring Argos. Both teams built multiple possession leads, only to see the opponent come back to tie the game. The Bulldogs forced a couple of turnovers late in the second-half to tie the game on a Cedric Boone lay in with five seconds left. The Bulldog defense made a stand and forced overtime. The Argos jumped out to a early four-point lead in the extra session. The Bulldogs fought back and tied the game with 5.4 seconds remaining in overtime.
