 TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Tarence Kinsey hit three free throws in the final 26 seconds of overtime and South Carolina beat Florida State 69-68 Tuesday night to keep alive its hopes of repeating as the National Invitation Tournament champions.
Todd Galloway's two free throws got Florida State within one with 5 seconds left and the Seminoles stole the inbounds pass, but Galloway's desperation jumper was blocked by Rocky Trice as the game ended.
The Gamecocks (20-15) thought they had the game won in regulation when Renaldo Balkman banked in a short jumper at the buzzer with the game tied at 58, but officials ruled it was too late.
