NEW YORK - Florida guard Chris Chiozza hit the game winning shot in overtime, pulling up for a floater from just outside the three point line to give the Gators an 84–83 win over Wisconsin.
After Nigel Hayes sank two free throws to give the Badgers the lead, Chiozza drove the length of the floor with no timeouts remaining and hit a breakneck shot that fell as time expired.
The game was sent to overtime after Badgers guard Zak Showalter hit a similarly difficult three-pointer with two seconds remaining in the second half.
