Gators survive Wisconsin in OT thriller, advance to Elite Eight

Down two points. Four seconds left. And the full length of the court.

This is what Florida guard Chris Chiozza had to overcome as he sprinted down the baseline to receive an inbounds pass from Canyon Barry.

With the Badgers’ Nigel Hayes — who hit two free throws prior to give his team an 83-81 lead — running with him step-for-step, Chiozza dribbled the ball as fast as he could to the other end of the floor.

When he got within range, Chiozza picked up his dribble and threw up a one-handed prayer as the final buzzer of the overtime period reverberated throughout Madison Square Garden.
