- No 11 seed UCLA win 88-78 over No 2 Alabama in overtime
- No 1 seeds Gonzaga and Michigan also reach Elite Eight
Jaime Jaquez Jr scored 17 points, hitting two big jumpers early in overtime, and No 11 seed UCLA held on after Alabama’s Alex Reese drained a buzzer-beating three-pointer at the end of regulation to beat the second-seeded Crimson Tide 88-78 in a Sweet 16 showdown Sunday night.
With star guard Johnny Juzang fouled out, Jaquez and David Singleton took control in overtime. Jaquez curled in a jumper to make it 74-68, then drilled a three-pointer to make it 77-70 moments later. Singleton’s free throws made it 79-70 with under a minute to go, and all UCLA (21-9) had to do was put the game away from the foul line.
