UH takes down Duke in epic Final Four comeback, advances to national championship game against Florida

This was a comeback for the ages.

Duke led Houston by as many as 12 points in the first half of Saturday's Final Four matchup at the Alamodome in San Antonio.

The Cougars trailed by nine points with three minutes remaining.

But it didn't matter. UH rallied and Duke failed to convert down the stretch, leading the Cougars to win 70-67 and face Florida in the national championship game Monday night.

It will mark the third time UH appears in the national championship game. They lost in the title game in 1983 and 1984.
