How tall is No. 32 on Florida? Gators' Olivier Rioux tallest player in college basketball

Florida basketball is one win away from clinching its spot in the Final Four of the men's NCAA Tournament.

Standing in the way of that is No. 3 seed Texas Tech, whom the top-seeded Gators will meet up against at 6:09 p.m. ET on Saturday in the Elite Eight of the West Region. A win on Saturday would give the Gators their second net-cutting of the season, as they've also cut the nets down once this year after winning the men's SEC tournament.

Should that happen, one player won't need to use a ladder to cut down the nets and celebrate a ticket punched to San Antonio: freshman forward Olivier Rioux.
