WATCH: TV station acts out highlights from Florida/Dayton NCAA game

A Gainesville, Florida TV station, WCJB-TV, had an interesting dilemma on Saturday night after the hometown Florida Gators defeated the Dayton Flyers to advance to the Final Four in the NCAA basketball tournament.

Breaking news from Canada and around the world sent to your email, as it happens.

WCJB-TV is not a CBS affiliate, so it must wait 24 hours to air NCAA tournament highlights due to a rights restriction.

Well, that didn’t stop sportscaster Zach Aldridge and three other members of the WCJB-TV team, who did their best to recreate the game using a nerf ball and mini-hoop.

The viral video was complete with slam dunks, in-your-face reactions, and a big emotional finish.
