March Madness Day I: BYU advances in double OT
The BYU Cougars dropped Florida, 99-92, in double overtime to notch its first win in the tournament since 1993.
The game was the coming out party for BYU's backcourt of Michael Loyd Jr. (26 points) and Jimmer Fredette (35). The duo shot 20-36 from the field, 6-13 from three and 15-18 from the foul line and notched six steals.
Florida has no one to blame for the loss but themselves. The Gators had two awful possessions at the end of regulation and the first overtime and didn't even get a shot off on the latter play.
If two seed Kansas State takes care of 15 seed North Texas, Saturday's game between the Cougars and Wildcats could be one for the ages when those two backcourts square off.
