Behind late rally, Florida downs Georgia

When they had a chance to tie the game, the Gators dribbled the ball out of bounds.

Then they missed a free throw to tie.

Then they missed a layup to take the lead.

And then they missed another free throw to lead with 6 seconds left in regulation.

But despite a complete lack of coherence on offense, Florida pulled out its first overtime win in five years, 80-76, against Georgia (11-6, 3-2 SEC) on Saturday.

With the help of 27 points from Canyon Barry, 27 free throws and 27 points off three-pointers, Florida (14-3, 5-0 SEC) remained undefeated in its renovated O’Connell Center.
