For the third time in the last two weeks -- and the fifth time in the past two seasons -- Florida State star Michael Snaer hit a buzzer-beating game-winner in ACC play.

This season, he beat Clemson with a three off the glass and he beat Maryland with a three from the corner.

This one was different.

Instead of drilling a spot-up three, Snaer actually beat two Georgia Tech defenders off the dribble before hitting a swooping, one-handed finger-roll off the glass at the buzzer.

Shades of George Gervin here, folks:

Snaer finished with 15 points, four boards and four assists. But more importantly, the win means that the Seminoles are now 5-4 in ACC play and still have slim hopes of making it to the NCAA tournament. And that’s pretty much all a result of Snaer.

Seriously.

Florida State has lost four of their last seven games. The three games they won? Those were all on game-winning buckets from Snaer. Without those three shots, where is Florida State right now?
