The Final Four semifinal was delivered on Saturday night in a magnificent way, as Florida defeated Auburn 79-73 in what was a back-and-forth street fight for forty minutes inside the Alamodome.
A packed house, with two teams from the SEC battling for a spot in the national title game on Monday night, was certainly one to remember. Thanks to a monster night from the field, Walter Clayton Jr. put himself in the category of best Final Four performance, with 32 points against a tough Auburn defense that relied on Johni Broome in the paint.

DENVER (AP) — The Colorado Rockies turned the fifth triple play in franchise history in the second inning Saturday night against the Athletics.
With two on, Jacob Wilson sent a one-hopper to third baseman Ryan McMahon, who started the 5-4-3 triple play. He stepped on third and threw to second baseman Kyle Farmer, who tossed the ball to first baseman Michael Toglia. McMahon fist-pumped after completing the play.
The previous time Colorado turned a triple play was Sept. 1, 2015, against Arizona.
“Wade Cunningham?”
Stephen A. Smith just went viral. For the wrong reason.
The ESPN talking mouth was complimenting Florida guard Walter Clayton Jr. for his epic Final Four game Saturday night in San Antonio to rally the Gators past Auburn.

The tweet is still live.
