Noah Locke’s shot bounced off the rim, but he wasn’t giving up on the play.
The freshman guard’s team led the SEC co-leader on its home court by just three points in overtime. LSU hadn’t given Florida its best game so far, but the Tigers were making the important shots. There was just over a minute left in the game, and the Gators knew they needed a two-possession lead.
Locke rushed in to recover his own offensive rebound. He kicked it out to KeVaughn Allen on the outside, and Allen drilled the three.
