<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>LAS VEGAS (AP) -- Kansas sure grew up in a hurry.Darrell Arthur scored six of his 19 points in overtime, Julian Wright had a career-high 21 and the 10th-ranked Jayhawks played sterling defense when it mattered to hold off No. 1 Florida 82-80 in the Las Vegas Invitational on Saturday night.With thousands of Kansas fans turning the Orleans Arena in a mini-Allen Fieldhouse, the defending NCAA champions' school-record 17-game winning streak ended when Corey Brewer missed an open 3-pointer at the buzzer. Joakim Noah scored 17 points and forced overtime with a tip-in shortly before the regulation buzzer, but Florida (6-1) couldn't score in the final 1:22.Kansas (5-1) also ended the Gators' 26-game winning streak against nonconference opponents with a shockingly mature effort from a youthful squad that lost at home to tiny Oral Roberts just 10 days earlier.Florida took an 80-77 lead on Taurean Green's 3-pointer, but Darrell Arthur hit two free throws. After Green made a turnover, Russell Robinson found Brandon Rush for the go-ahead layup in traffic with 26 seconds left.Robinson then hit another free throw with 4.7 seconds left, but Brewer had an open look at a winning 3-pointer. It clanged short, and some Jayhawks fans rushed the court.</div><div align="center">Source</div>Wow, amazing game. Went all the way into over-time. Anyone see it?
I watched the final ten minutes of regulation and the overtime period, and it definitely was a great game. Kansas had the game won when they were up by four with 16 seconds left, however they fouled Brewer on a drive to the basket with less than ten seconds left. Then he missed the free throw and Kansas failed to get the rebound... and eventually Noah "accidentally" tipped it in.Great game though, and the overtime period was just amazing.
Solid game. Kansas was able to overcome a few F*ck ups towards the end, but eventually they pulled through, which was nice to see. They played very very well.
Great game! Not really an upset though and this and all the other upsets just show that the NCAA tournament is going to be wide open. I have a feeling the elite eight is going to be full of higher seeds with the exception of two or three 1's and 2's.
Lots of upsets this year. I'd call this an upset. Florida's still a top team, they've got lots of talent and Noah's great at the college level.
