With 3.2 seconds left in regulation and needing to go the distance of the floor for a potential game-winning shot, Ohio had to dial up something special to defeat Buffalo at home Saturday afternoon.

Maurice Ndour delivered just that for the Bobcats.

Ndour caught a perfect baseball pass from teammate Antonio Campbell near the top of the key, shook off his defender and drove to the bucket for a buzzer-beating two-handed jam. 

Ndour's powerful finish broke Ohio's deadlock with Buffalo and gave the Bobcats (7-10, 2-4 MAC) a 63-61 win, their first home victory in conference play this season.

There have been plenty of great shots today in college basketball — and there is still a lot of action left on the Saturday schedule — but it is going to be hard to beat a long-range connection for a buzzer-beating dunk.

Update: Ohio posted an HD video of the game-winning play on its YouTube page.
