BC took possession with 33.7 seconds left in overtime but Makai Ashton-Langford's shot in the paint was short. Sam Waardenburg grabbed the rebound and passed to Charlie Moore who hit a streaking Miller for the game-winner.

BC almost won in regulation after Brevin Galloway stole the ball and saw his heave from beyond midcourt hit the front of the rim, sending the game into OT tied at 65. Galloway scored BC's four overtime points but missed a free throw before the Eagles missed their final five shots.

The Hurricanes, who beat the Eagles by 11 points eight days earlier, escaped to earn a semifinal matchup with top seed and seventh-ranked Duke on Friday.
