Down goes Florida. There will be a new national champion in men's college basketball this season. The Gators were the first top seed to get bounced from the tourney in a 73-72 nail-bitter against Iowa.
After rolling past Prairie View A&M, Florida could get it done down the stretch. Alvaro Folgueiras' three-pointer put Iowa up by one with 4 second left. Tavion Banks led the way with 20 points and six rebounds.
Here is a look at the box score from Sunday's second round South Region game in Tampa.
