Stephen F. Austin ends No. 1 Duke’s 150-straight non-conference home game win streak! — NCAA March Madness (@MarchMadnessMBB) On the night of Nov. 26, unranked Stephen F. Austin pulled one of the biggest upsets of the decade beating No. 1 Duke 85-83 at the buzzer. That upset and buzzer-beater came at the hands at none-other than Nathan Bain. "We knew if we could keep it close we could come out on top," Bain told Andy Katz on of the March Madness 365 podcast about his last-second layup. "When it's your time when you're in the right position you make the play." 100 DAYS TIL MADNESS: Since Bain made the layup that handed Duke their first non-conference home-loss to an unranked opponent in over 30 years, Stephen F. Austin's fundraiser for the Bain family has exploded. Thanks to Bain's late-game heroics and the circulation of his story throughout the , the amount of money the GoFundMe has raised has increased 50-fold, to just under $150,000, and Bain's story has reached a nationwide audience. "They've been in disbelief about how much they know they'll be able to help other people," Bain said of his family who will be receiving the donations. "It's bigger than basketball, the shot didn't really matter, it's what happened afterward." Bain and his family credit God for the miraculous events that have unfolded in the past couple of weeks, as Nathan remembered what it was like being in the United States while his home country suffered from one of the most dangerous storms in modern history.
