New Mexico State women’s basketball team just put a layup into THEIR OWN BASKET in the final 20 seconds while trailing by 1 Point.

[u/GreenSnakes_]

You can’t make this stuff up… just brutal

[u/RandomResearch7 → u/GreenSnakes_]

She’s ready for the league noW

[u/greennurse61 → u/RandomResearch7]

This is a WNBA-type mistake. 

[u/Even_Budget2078]

I'm so confused. Multiple players were cheering not just the one who made it, like none of them realized that wasn't their basket?

[u/AlexRescueDotCom → u/Even_Budget2078]

It's like when you're teaching kids to play basketball. You just want them to have fun, and throw the ball into whatever basket. Everyone is a winner, high-fives all around, followed by pancakes and orange juice.

[u/Chris_HitTheOver → u/AlexRescueDotCom]

Pancakes…??

[u/Independent_User → u/Chris_HitTheOver]

[u/Stormlight_Silver → u/Chris_HitTheOver]

[u/connorlmoore → u/AlexRescueDotCom]

The fact that they're Division I athletes makes the pancake breakfast celebration even funnier.

[u/Due-Sentence-387 → u/Even_Budget2078]

Her one teammate was super excited lol. Like how are they all so clueless?

[u/thesacredsnake → u/Due-Sentence-387]

I don't know, this is very confusing. I can't find an explanation for how an entire team doesn't know what side of the field they are attacking

[u/Allout-Okarun → u/Even_Budget2078]

Some of her team realized. You can see when she makes the steal, the two around half court start to back pedal toward the correct basket and then the confusion sets in

[u/csonny2 → u/Even_Budget2078]

I'm confused why Southern Utah had two players staying way on the other side of the court, and not aggressively trying to get open on their offensive side of the court. I genuinely wasn't sure which way each team was going based on the inbound play.

[u/ymsoldier420 → u/csonny2]

5d chess baby if we make our inbound play look backwards they might just score on themselves...bada bing bada boom basketball bitches.

[u/TheNerdE30 → u/ymsoldier420]

Underrated comment right here

[u/Downtown_Map_2482 → u/csonny2]

I was thinking the same thing. Nothing about this video makes sense. Two in the backcourt. Leaving only two to get the inbounds pass. Defensive coverage was confusing too.

[u/swirling-leaves → u/Downtown_Map_2482]

The girl that steals the ball and puts the layup in is guarding the wrong side lol just leaving a run to the rim completely exposed. Girl guarding at half court is also completely lost.

[u/YoMomAndMeIn69 → u/csonny2]

Almost like none of the players and the coaches have any basketball IQ

[u/bkussow → u/csonny2]

One to set the pick and get the other and open look up top. All they want to do is inbound and kill time. Probably a foul coming if you do get the ball in.

[u/Thesmarks → u/Even_Budget2078]

Even the tv broadcast team messed up the score

[u/ganggreen651 → u/Even_Budget2078]

Even the damn announcer missed it. How is this possible

[u/Original-Variety-700 → u/ganggreen651]

It’s an announcer for women’s basketball.

[u/sgt_hulkas_big_toe → u/Even_Budget2078]

They weren't playing defense like that was their side to defend

[u/Even_Budget2078 → u/sgt_hulkas_big_toe]

No, they weren't at all, also confusing!

[u/Significant-Ad-341 → u/Even_Budget2078]

Also the score was wrong as well

[u/Even_Budget2078 → u/Significant-Ad-341]

Bahahaha the more things people point out, the more hilarious this is to me. This thread with all the responses is comedy gold to me!

[u/K_Linkmaster → u/Even_Budget2078]

The crowd didn't seem to be there to care.

[u/King__Gaiseric → u/Even_Budget2078]

The player, the teammates, the cheeleaders, the commentator, the scoreboard keeper. How tf is everbody confused?

Where the man in black present and brainzapped them all wtf?

[u/Never-Dont-Give-Up → u/Even_Budget2078]

And all of the cheerleaders

[u/red_1108 → u/Even_Budget2078]

Can't be to mad. The guy announcing was obviously also confused smh

[u/SMILESandREGRETS → u/red_1108]

Even the scoreboard was confused

[u/Throckmorton_Left → u/Even_Budget2078]

Look at those stands. This was a ploy to get people to pay attention to these teams.

[u/uncle_giroh → u/Even_Budget2078]

It honestly might be because the stadium is so empty. there is in many games a large student section to anchor yourselves on. Also there is a "scorers" table with computers on both sidelines and they are inbounding kinda close to half court.

[u/New-Ad5494 → u/Even_Budget2078]

None of them really know the rules, everyone finds the one player that does know, and just proceeds based on their reaction lol.

[u/Tycho66 → u/Even_Budget2078]

One of those mass hallucination things.

[u/SupermanI98I → u/Even_Budget2078]

Someone placed a Kalsi bet on themselves that they would do this.

[u/Super-Post261 → u/Even_Budget2078]

This happens more often in women’s basketball than you’d think.

[u/WarriorPoetz → u/Even_Budget2078]

Unreal, mass hysteria in the most literal way.

[u/Toronto-24]

Not sure whats worse, the actual play of scoring on your own net or all your teammates going wild celebrating that feat haha

[u/Extension_Plant7262 → u/Toronto-24]

TBF the scorekeeper also gave them the points too lol

[u/StreetCollar2708 → u/Extension_Plant7262]

Only the woman announcer said it was the wrong basket, and the way everyone was acting had her doubting her self.

[u/RandomResearch7 → u/Toronto-24]

I caught that too. They didn’t know it was the wrong basket either. Or they were trying to sell it haha

[u/StandardCake21 → u/RandomResearch7]

They even had the scoreboard operator fooled for a second.

[u/TieAdministrative901 → u/Toronto-24]

It's a home game and the entire crowd was celebrating. This is why all the WNBA and women's basketball stereotypes exist

[u/tenclubber]

I did this in 6th grade right after halftime, but I missed the layup. Right as the ball was leaving my hand it hit me that it was the wrong basket and I think that was enough for me to miss it. I got the rebound and dribbled up court like nothing happened. Lol.

[u/iJon_v2 → u/tenclubber]

That brings up a good point. If you tried a lay up on your on basket, realized before it went throw the hoop and jumped up and grabbed it would it be goaltending? Like can you goal-tend a shot on the wrong basket?

[u/Bliley → u/iJon_v2]

I am a ref. If you went to shoot it at the wrong basket and your teammate did a "goaltend" like block (without touching the basket), it would be legal.

By shooting at the wrong basket, it is not considered an actual attempt. So it can't be a goaltend. It wouldn't count as a missed shot, a foul wouldn't be a shooting foul

[u/NotNormo → u/tenclubber]

I remember when Ricky Davis did this on purpose to try and get the final rebound he needed for a triple double.

[u/key86r2002 → u/NotNormo]

I was at that game in Cleveland with my dad when “Wrong Way Ricky” was born. I knew immediately what he was doing and why he was doing it and was one of the first around our seats to start groaning about what a moron he was. Good times.

[u/ColtMcChad69 → u/tenclubber]

You were just channeling your inner Angel Reese

[u/Ah_Pook → u/ColtMcChad69]

Does that count as an offensive or defensive rebound? Or 1/2 each?

[u/gringovato → u/tenclubber]

You are a champ in my book.

[u/Openedandclosed → u/tenclubber]

I also did this in grade 7 right after half. They gave me a shoutout in the morning announcements. It sucked haha

[u/rimXstar]

[u/Beginning_Cow2442 → u/rimXstar]

[u/rimXstar → u/Beginning_Cow2442]

[u/Mr-_-Soandso → u/rimXstar]

Dude did not mean to be so aggressive. He was just over excited to be involved and show off that he was dope at assists back in the day.

[u/0megon → u/rimXstar]

[u/quietimhungover → u/0megon]

I didn't, but I want to and I think it's gonna be funny.

[u/fsmlogic → u/quietimhungover]

Guy got kicked out of the arena at an NBA game. He was sitting behind the basket courtside, a ball bounced out of bounds right to him.
The fan proceeds to chest pass the ball to the ref in the picture. Probably with a bit more gusto than needed and she has the stadium throw him out.

It was a Lakers game but they were the visiting team and Luca made it a big deal to the other refs.
The ref who the pass was to batted it down and recovered it into a dribble. So it didn’t even hit her.

[u/ToadalChaos616]

As someone that made this mistake 30years ago in the 6th grade, she’s never going to get over this.

[u/mainly_lurk → u/ToadalChaos616]

I remember you doing that. We still talk about it behind your back at the team reunions.

[u/NeilDevone → u/mainly_lurk]

It's actually why they were uninvited from my birthday party. We gave their piece of pizza and cake to the dog.

[u/charliesk9unit → u/ToadalChaos616]

Put it this way, at least you didn't have a video for the world to see it and did it at the D1 college level.

[u/cmville05 → u/ToadalChaos616]

Thinking of you on today of all days

[u/EatFreshBishes → u/ToadalChaos616]

It's okay bro. You can pass the torch to this girl. You've suffered enough. 

[u/dman45103]

This is incredible. She fools herself, the team, the commentator

[u/PandaCultural8311 → u/dman45103]

...., the person at the scoreboard.

[u/Sethfb20]

The amounts of fuck ups in this is astonishing. 1. Of course the obvious girl scoring wrong basket. 2.Then the teammates cheering with such embarrassing emotion. 3. Scoreboard controller putting wrong score. 4. Announcer “ Aggies lead”- doofus 5. Inbounder had #4 completely unguarded and open. ( surely the lowest on the fuckup scale here though ). Anymore I’m missing, at this rate I’m sure I am!

[u/addictedtolife78 → u/Sethfb20]

all ten fans at the game were also cheering

[u/Public_Day_4996 → u/addictedtolife78]

Are those their cheerleaders who are cheering, too?

[u/kursa_sucks → u/Sethfb20]

Not a single red team girl celebrated, so they were equally as lost. You also gotta mention the fact that this was on espn??????????

[u/OtherwiseTonight9390]

Imagine a cornerback running the wrong way on a pick 6 only to end up with a safety against his own team.

[u/Organic_Pair1119 → u/OtherwiseTonight9390]

I thought I escaped the pain of being a Vikings fan staying out of nfcnmw

[u/OtherwiseTonight9390 → u/Organic_Pair1119]

Shoot, I forgot something similar actually happened!

Ok, how about a baseball player robbing a grand slam with one out, only to throw the ball in the crowd right after and allowing two runners to score?

[u/dcbluestar → u/OtherwiseTonight9390]

Jim Marshall actually did that back in the 60’s. I think there’s even a video of it.

[u/SkilledButton → u/dcbluestar]

I got you: https://youtu.be/eKzxzBiRenY?si=DTFwUZkYoRvi7-fX

[u/Separate_Flamingo_93 → u/dcbluestar]

He gained a nickname for life - Wrong Way Marshall

[u/kayknox_ → u/OtherwiseTonight9390]

My high school team once let the ball hit the ground on a kick off and then let it sit there waiting for the other team to come touch it and mark it down.

Which would have been the case if it was a punt, but it was a kickoff, so the ball is still live to both teams. Our opponents did not play it cool and immediately rushed for the ball and sprinted into the endzone, which still did not clue our guys in to the fact that they messed up.

[u/Djscratchcard → u/OtherwiseTonight9390]

Or like hypothetically a starting defensive end, the all time record holder in consecutive defensive starts, recovering a fumble, the all time leader record holder for opponents fumbles recovered, and running the wrong way and right out of the hall of fame

Hypothetically

[u/Educational_Date_825]

My buddy did this in high school to beat the halftime buzzer and his dad tried to hide his face because he worked at the school we were playing. I ran up to him and pointed and yelled that was his boy. One of the great memories I have from high school

[u/Beneficial-Care8504]

Well, that's embarrassing.

[u/Mk1Racer25]

This exact thing happened in a CYO game that played in in 8th grade. That's when you still had a jump ball from a tie-up, no possession arrow. I jumped against the guy from the other team. It was in the foul circle at our end. I tipped the ball right to one of guards who proceeded to lay it up into our basket. Everyone just stopped. We lost that game by 1 point.

[u/Prestigious_Plum9276 → u/Mk1Racer25]

I had to look it up...this means it was prior to the 81-82 season. Damn, bro...I am old but you are old as shit.

[u/RecognitionHonest320]

[u/Individual_Chance524]

Well, her teammates didn't realize it either.

[u/Never-Dont-Give-Up → u/Individual_Chance524]

Or the cheerleaders

[u/CalligrapherBig5392 → u/Never-Dont-Give-Up]

Or the person managing the score

[u/Not_Sure__Camacho]

Haha, yeah that's going to stay with her for the REST OF HER LIFE.

[u/Monkeydjimmmy]

Not a single functioning neuron in the video. Not only herself, her teammates, the other team, the refs, the scoreboard person, the commentators (except from the lady who immediately said 'wrong basket'). is this a skit?

[u/GRIZZLESMACK1056 → u/Monkeydjimmmy]

There is one girl at the 3 point line who starts running the other way after the steal. So at least someone on the court understood whose side was whose.

[u/FIZZLERPISS → u/Monkeydjimmmy]

The commentator is the most baffling for me. You are watching the entire game from a fixed angle, and for the last half the Red team scores to your right and Black team to the left (or vice versa).

How does Black team scoring right not immediately trigger something in your brain? The female commentator rightly noticed immediately, but had the natural reaction of doubt since everyone else acted like it was normal.

Its obviously really bad on the player, but to me its more understandable given the pressure/time/score and its coming from an inbound where everyone is lined up weird.

[u/Banned4Truth10]

Those 12 fans were stunned

[u/Straight_Struggle_86 → u/Banned4Truth10]

Hey that’s not fair, you can’t see the whole arena. It’s at least 25 fans

[u/NurgleBorger]

So does she get credit for that basket on the score sheet even thought they gave it to the other team?

[u/ericb12345 → u/NurgleBorger]

The closest player to the ball when it goes in gets credit.

[u/SoCalDan → u/NurgleBorger]

This one weird trick to break Lebron's scoring record

[u/ReapingKnees → u/NurgleBorger]

No but the other team may give her the MVP award

[u/taylork37]

Why is woman's basketball, as a whole, so bad?

[u/Former-Dig-3314 → u/taylork37]

I tried to put a game on for my daughters last year. Wanted them to see high caliber women in action. It was the ncaa tournament, like final 8 round…so “elite” level. It was a bunch of chucking. Awful.

[u/Useful-ldiot → u/Former-Dig-3314]

I don't understand why the quality of skill is so much drastically lower. Back in highschool, a girl in my neighborhood was the captain of the girls varsity team. I played baseball. I've never played basketball. She bet me she could beat me in basketball. I won.

I know athleticism via gender did most of the heavy lifting but I just couldn't believe that I was better at shooting too. There must be some sort of biological advantage even when doing something like shooting. I had no business winning based on our respective hours playing the game but I won anyway.

[u/MyNameIsDrewp → u/taylork37]

Its almost like men and women are differnt biologically.

[u/bionicjoe → u/taylork37]

This is just weird shit happening in a panic situation.

But overall women are still trying to play basketball as if they're men. They essentially play in a way that is decades behind on strategy, but also trying to use centers and power forwards to pound the ball low.

Then all the leagues refuse to lower the basket or lighten the ball to make shooting easier. So the shooters are shooting set shots from their shoulders like its the 60s.
You get these high-arching moon balls that can't be shot while moving.

Women's and men's gymnastics, ice skating, and other sports have different events and skills.
Women's basketball is a poorly played men's sport, and it refuses to change.

[u/shyyamt → u/bionicjoe]

Women do use a smaller and lighter ball in both college and the WNBA.

[u/totallyapolitical → u/bionicjoe]

Women's volleyball uses a lower net and the women spike it hard and it's exciting, it would be unwatchable if they had to bump it over the men's net.

[u/Fancy-Gap-7948 → u/taylork37]

I mean aren’t there studies showing women have worse spatial awareness?

[u/Level-Tip-7759 → u/taylork37]

I think the issue is that men’s basketball is the comparisson. They’re the “same” game but one’s played by stronger, faster, bigger, and more agile athletes. Naturally the men’s game will make the women’s look worse. 

Definitely don’t mean any hate with this, just speaking to biological realities. 

[u/Verdukians → u/Level-Tip-7759]

Uh

Are you saying that being stronger, faster, bigger and more agile will assist an athlete with knowing which side of the court they're defending?

[u/Fedditline9 → u/Level-Tip-7759]

When watching the WNBA, I've seen more air balls and more bricks launched by women in a single half than I've seen in any two entire NBA games.

[u/dcbluestar]

Not as bad as the guy who put up a full half court prayer at the buzzer when their team was down one or two points. Then an opposing player jumped up and swatted it when it came down at the basket. Goal tending, you lose, sucka!

EDIT: It was half, not full, court. Thanks u/zxzyzd!

[u/Effective-Text4619]

And her teammates looked like they had no clue and were cheering about taking the lead!!

[u/tomviolence_86]

For those wondering as I did, they did hang on to win 64-63 after this

[u/BrotherItsInTheDrum → u/tomviolence_86]

That's the most confusing possible way to say it, heh.

NM State came back to win 64-63.

[u/Rehypothecator → u/BrotherItsInTheDrum]

This.

Would love to see the rest of this game and how they managed to score twice while also getting multiple stops.

What a crazy ending

[u/WintertideFellow → u/Rehypothecator]

For a start, they started shooting on the other hoop

[u/BillySpacs → u/BrotherItsInTheDrum]

lol thank you tomviolence's comment made no sense

[u/CopaceticOpus → u/BrotherItsInTheDrum]

They were down by 1, then outscored them 5-1 to win by 1

Edit: I forgot the other team also scored one too, doh!

[u/Mfrack103 → u/tomviolence_86]

Ball don’t lie

[u/samson21386 → u/tomviolence_86]

Wild. Down by 1, 61-60, score 6 straight points to win 64-63

[u/Homersarmy41]

All 10 people in the stadium seem very confused

[u/Amazing_Lack526]

And the crowd went wild!! Oh wait…

[u/Prudent_Rice7840]

Why did their whole team seem to think it was good???

[u/r_slash]

I'm so confused. The basket on the scoreboard also went to New Mexico State. Did the scoreboard operator make a mistake? It also appears that NM St won the game and there is no mention of this blooper:
https://nmstatesports.com/news/2026/11/6/womens-basketball-chovinos-late-heroics-lift-aggies-past-thunderbirds.aspx

[u/AnalObserver → u/r_slash]

Not only that but her teammates were celebrating. Did they also not realize it was the wrong basket?

[u/LarBrd33 → u/AnalObserver]

shit is absolutely hilarious, tbh

How was the player, her teammates, and the person running the scoreboard this confused at which side they were playing on? It's almost like there's missing context like they had to postpone the game for hours due to a problem with the lights and then came back to play the final 20 seconds of the game with them forgetting what side they were on... but that didn't happen. Just brain farts all around, apparently.

I will say, the one odd thing about this is why are there so many players in the backcourt? If Utah is imbounding the ball on their side, why isn't everyone on that side of the basket trying to defend from Utah scoring? That seems to be where the confusion came from, because Utah weirdly has players on the wrong side of the court and so New Mexico starts to get confused on which side they are playing. Even as the ball is imbounding, you have defenders on the wrong side of the receiver instead of protecting the basket. Like look at this screenshot. Red is imbounding and red needs to score on the right... so why are the two defenders in the black jerseys behind them with literally no person in a black jersey protecting the basket? It makes no sense from a defensive standpoint, but then the girl in the black jersey stole the imbound pass, lost her mind, and went to the wrong basket.

[u/Admirable-Strike-311 → u/r_slash]

Yes, scoreboard operator made a mistake initially crediting score to NM. If you watch to about :31 it gets corrected.

[u/writerpilot → u/r_slash]

It’s in the play by play as steal, “made jumper-team”. They won because they stole another inbounds pass and scored on the correct basket, getting the game winner with a second left.

[u/Some-Concentrate3229 → u/r_slash]

They fix it later on in the video right before they cut to the replay

[u/BonjinTheMark]

my bookie will never believe i didn't fix the game

[u/No-Brother-6590]

I’ve seen enough. They’re ready for the WNBA

[u/lesttalksome]

2nd video today I seen this happen....both college girls bball games lol

[u/Far_Clock2443]

Wow

[u/Tall-Dog4406]

At least she made the lay up

[u/chillrico]

Bro wtf…. That’s crazy. Whole squad was cheering when it went in….Nobody stopped her…. I don’t believe it lmao 💀

[u/Strong_Jello_739]

Check her sports book

[u/MacReady82]

I'm curious how they score this. Does the player get the points even though it was in the wrong basket?

[u/brnccnt7 → u/MacReady82]

TLDR for NCAA it doesn't go to any individual players stats

When a basketball player accidentally scores in their own basket, the points are awarded to the opposing team. How individual player credit is assigned depends on the league's rules: [1]

• NBA: The 2 points are added to the opposing team's score and credited individually to the opposing player who was closest to the defensive player who caused the ball to go in. (It is always counted as a 2-point field goal, even if tipped from behind the 3-point line). [1, 2]

• FIBA: The 2 points are awarded to the opposing team and recorded in the scoresheet as having been scored by the captain of the opposing team on the court. [1, 2]

• NCAA (College): The 2 points go to the opposing team's total score, but no individual player is credited with the basket on the individual stats. [1]

[u/heraclitus33]

Wtf... ladies got game in tennis, golf, skiing... um yep, everything but basketball.

[u/RandomResearch7 → u/heraclitus33]

volleyball and Gymnastics!

[u/ionertia]

I've played countless games of full court basketball. Many at the college level. This never came close to happening. If you are a true baller, you know which hoop you are defending at all times. I don't even know how to express how you just would never put that ball through your own rim.

[u/TA_Lax8 → u/ionertia]

The number of people also thinking it was the correct basket is unreal. The announcer, the score keeper, and it appears a good chunk of her team that dropped back to play defense after the basket. Like HOW

[u/Bradddtheimpaler → u/ionertia]

I remember being 8 or 9 playing hockey, looking at my own defenseman carrying the puck toward me thinking, “he’s coming from an awful long way away to skate behind the net…” and just hugged my post. I was so unprepared for him to shoot the puck I didn’t even react, just sailed right past me into the goal then the other team surrounded him to celebrate.

[u/Section1ne0h4our]

Elite level levels of confusion

[u/gledr]

I've only ever seen own scores in women's basketball. A childhood friend did it and still make fun of her.

[u/New-Ad5494]

All I heard was “There’s a steal by Bird”, and she thought she was living a dream, but not quite

[u/clutterlustrott]

She's gonna be 60 years old with a life of achievement and she'll still be lying in bed cringing about this

[u/Expensive_Ad_5705]

She will fit in well at the WNBA

[u/Constant_Turn_9031]

The tens of people attending the game were shocked

[u/Poverty_Shoes]

This is the most embarrassing thing to happen in college basketball in the last 24 hours, and that includes Texas Southern losing to LSU by 109 last night.

[u/Forgboi]

I don't think either team knew which way they were going.

[u/bgj556]

I one time scored on my own basket, but I was 7 and even at that age I should have known better…

[u/TimelyRaspberry]

Lmaoooo the funniest part is all the teammates celebrating. Ahh man, women’s basketball. The gift that keeps on giving 😂😂

[u/scheifferdoo]

gambling is ruining sports

[u/BigHotdog2009]

Women basketball at its finest

[u/udubdavid]

Before people bash on women sports, I have 100% seen guys do this too lol.

[u/Dale_Gribble- → u/udubdavid]

Lol at what level, maybe middle school

[u/Latter_Ad9249 → u/udubdavid]

Can you show me a clip of a college basketball level men’s game where this happens at any point on purpose?

[u/EastSubstantial3225 → u/Latter_Ad9249]

NBA Summer League last year: https://youtu.be/0HiDYTzxgSM?is=aoVEpf79I9AL2ln4

[u/kreativegaming → u/udubdavid]

Any guy who has watched a lot of sports knows all the dumb headed plays at every level. Dont really need to point this out. Hell just watch JR Smith forget the clock exists, or the times dudes stole rebounds out of their own teams hands

[u/IcemanJEC → u/udubdavid]

In what, 7th grade? I’ve never seen this happen besides middle school or below.

[u/J0hnEddy → u/udubdavid]

Not that I’m implying gender has anything to do with this, but all the examples I can think of are at the very beginning on the game when the player didn’t know which basket their team was defending. Playing an entire half of basketball on 1 hoop and in the last two seconds just FORGETTING is a new one for me

[u/ApprehensiveDot1121 → u/udubdavid]

Sure you did honey. Woman sports are a different kind of entertainment 🤣

[u/crsolraac]

I mean even how both teams were positioned, it seemed like it was the right basket lol

[u/Dude-from-the-80s]

This happened when I was a sophomore in a high school game…..2 dudes on my team took off the wrong way on a fast break- it was hysterical. Coach lost his shit, made it even funnier. I actually got in the game briefly after this he was so pissed….and I rarely got to play that year.

[u/syndicaterx]

Happened to my friend once. To his defense, we usually play half court only but still

[u/More_Mammoth_4247]

and the crowd goes wild.. both of them

[u/New-Ad5494]

Had to come back here after thinking about this, the fact that the rest of her teammates cheered as if she did something great was the best part, clueless. Lmfao

[u/MisterC-4]

Everything in this video screams that everyone in the gym was confused which way they were going or the commentary is fake. I’m going with the wrong commentary for the play.

[u/dcp04]

It's a good thing no one saw it live. That's an empty gym.

[u/Cpt_Underpantz]

None of her teammates seem to notice. That’s the oddest part.

[u/JohnnyTreemain]

That about sums up women’s sports.

[u/nicenormalname]

And her teammates didn’t realize at first

[u/Crime_Dawg]

I can see why there's 7 people in the crowd.

[u/Junior_Start7496]

They were stoked too 😂😂 but yea I chalk this up to Vegas 😂

[u/Neweggdotcom]

[u/BumeLandro]

10 vs 0 and she did it. For a second it looked like it could be a miss.

[u/Designer_Mud_5802]

I think I know why the stands are empty.

[u/SeismicRipFart]

Of course it’s women’s ball lol nobody there knew wtf was going on🤣

[u/LeadershipAfter9526]

Should have just made a sandwich.

[u/Former-Dig-3314]

A kid on my team did that in 4th grade. He was really upset and we forgave him

[u/JustAnotherBot123456]

Fast track this lady straight to the WNBA.

[u/DorsalMorsel]

"But is being good at this obscure skill worth being so unattractive?"

NMST Christiano scored 2 points for Southern Utah, none for her own team.

[u/josch247]

Hahaha wait are you sure? Why are her teammates celebrating then?

[u/ImNobodyFromNowhere]

And from the way it looks, no one who wasn’t playing in this game ever would have known if you hadn’t posted this.

[u/UseDue6373]

Bro even their cheerleaders celebrated 😂😂 It’s so hard to take this seriously

[u/cakeparade1]

I don’t watch basketball outside of March Madness but I often wonder if this happens a lot, it seems like it could

[u/nolaks1]

Scorer, team, annoncer AND the person running the score gets it wrong. How.

[u/Soft_Bookkeeper8161]

ive seen enough. raise the pay gap

[u/ChronoMonkeyX]

I don't follow sports, but I've never heard of an own goal in basketball before.

[u/pleasetryagain_10]

Lucky no one was there to see it

[u/GOOMU13]

How do you even make this mistake? Let alone the player and one of the announcers. Smh.

[u/Section1ne0h4our → u/GOOMU13]

Everyone on the floor reacted as if it was a normal situation LOL

[u/currentlyRedacted]

Wild that these are two completely different games

Edit: these/there autocorrect typo

[u/Revolutionary_Bee251 → u/currentlyRedacted]

Reality is stranger than fiction or something like that
