A week ago Oracle Team USA skipper Jimmy Spithill was selling a comeback not many were buying.

Down by seven points to challenger Emirates Team New Zealand and facing near defeat, Spithill said through clenched teeth that he liked his position and the chance to orchestrate "one hell of a comeback."

"I think the question is: Imagine if these guys lost from here?" he said. "What an upset that would be. They have almost got it in the bag."

Unbelievably, defender Oracle has nearly punched its way out.

With another two victories Tuesday, the Americans are not only alive. They are on the precipice of the greatest comeback in 162 years of America's Cup racing.

Trailing 8-1 in the first-to-nine series, Oracle has locked the contest at 8-8.
