<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">BOSTON (AP) -- Emeka Okafor helps Connecticut by getting his hands on opponents' shots. On Saturday, he did it by tipping a shot from a teammate. Taliek Brown's missed free throw glanced off Okafor and into the hands of teammate Josh Boone, who laid the ball in for a key basket in the sixth-ranked Huskies' 63-58 win over Boston College. Boone's only basket made it 60-56 with 23 seconds left. Had the Eagles gotten the rebound, they could have tied the game with a field goal or gone ahead with a 3-pointer. "It was just good timing, I guess," Boone said. "The fact is, the rebound should have been Emeka's. He hit it first." Okafor had only two blocks after leading the nation with 4.9 a game. And his six rebounds were below his average of 11.5. But he and Rashad Anderson led Connecticut with 16 points each. Boone, a freshman forward, started the game and "looked like a rookie on the road in a very physical game," but came through down the stretch, Huskies coach Jim Calhoun said. He played 15 minutes.</div> <div align="center">Link</div>
