Texas Tech and Florida played a pretty tight game all the way through.\u00a0 Florida had just tied the game up at 64 with about three minutes to play.\u00a0 But Keenan Evans would not let the Gators finish the comeback.<\/p>\n
Evans drilled a three pointer to give the Red Raiders back the lead, and then built that lead to 5 with a nice drive to the lane where he drew in the defense and passed it to Zhaire Smith for a dunk.<\/p>\n
Florida’s Chris Chiozza quickly drove down the lane and cut the lead back to three with a layup.\u00a0 And then, Jalen Hudson stole the inbounce pass to give the Gators a chance to tie the game.\u00a0 But Egor Kouechov and KeVaughn Allen missed three pointers from the corner, and the Red Raiders survive and advance.<\/p>\n
One more game tonight, and so far, only Loyola – Chicago has been able to crash the party.\u00a0 But #3 Michigan and #6 Houston are tied with about 15 1\/2 minutes to play.\u00a0 Will the Wolverines be able to join the other top seeds into the Sweet 16?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
