NCAA Southeast: Gators End Season For Jimmer, Cougars

The semifinal round of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament's Southeast Region took place on Thursday at New Orleans.


In the opener at the New Orleans Arena, Alex Tyus scored 19 points (and pulled down 17 rebounds) to lead a balanced attack that offset Jimmer Fredette's 32 points as #2 Florida ousted #3 BYU 83-74 in overtime.


In the nightcap, a 20-point, 12-rebound night from Matt Howard lifted #8 Butler to a 61-54 win over #4 Wisconsin.  The Bulldogs will play Florida on Saturday for the trip to Houston and the Final Four.
