This was what all the fuss has been about regarding the Lopez twins.

This was evidence the whole country saw, proof that convinced Marquette and ended the Golden Eagles' season.

Third-seeded Stanford (28-7) is headed to the regional semifinal against No. 2 Texas thanks to a dominating performance by its 7-foot sophomore twins.

Brook Lopez, two days after scoring just four points in a one-sided win over Cornell, had 30 points and made the game-winning basket on an acrobatic baseline shot with 1.3 seconds left in overtime to seal an 82-81 victory.

And brother Robin had 18 points, nine rebounds and three blocked shots.

Brook said he wasn't immediately sure his game-winner was good.

"Man, I was on the ground looking at it roll around, hoping it would fall," he said.

Senior Taj Finger said he's seen it before.

"That's kind of a typical, trick, Brook Lopez shot," Finger said. "He does that all the time in practice, so I don't think anyone was really surprised to see him take it. Or that it went in."

Brook Lopez, limited by two quick fouls in the first half, took charge in the overtime. He had six of Stanford's eight shot attempts and scored eight of the club's 11 points in the extra period.

"You can't stop him," Finger said. "He's so long, and he's got great touch. There's really nothing you can do, and he's proven that all year."
