Last week, we told you about one of the most lopsided college basketball games you’ll ever see. But one college hoops fan just compiled the highlights (and lowlights) from the game, and you'd have to see them to believe it.

The matchup took place on Dec. 10 between North Dakota State and non-Division I Oak Hills Christian, a tiny school in Bemidji, Minn. with a listed enrollment of just 100 students and a coach who doubles as a faculty member for the school’s business program. The final score of 108–14 is pretty ugly, but somehow, the video makes it so much worse.

That truly looks like if a low-level varsity high school team went out there against a college team. Most of those shots weren't even close.

This isn’t quite a Bishop Sycamore situation: Oak Hills Christian is a real school, and players certainly aren’t there only for their athletic pursuits. Still, seeing the highlights produced plenty of jokes from fans around the internet who couldn’t believe this group of players somehow found their way on the same floor as a Division I squad.

Amazingly, Oak Hills Christian has two wins this season, both against Sisseton Whapeton College in South Dakota. Someone needs to track down video of those games next.
