 SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) - The Florida Gators trailed by six points in the second half when head cheerleader Joakim Noah emerged from a timeout huddle waving, clapping and shouting, "Let's go!" The crowd roared, and eventually the Gators got going.
They played 32 minutes before they led, went five minutes without a basket down the stretch and still rallied to beat Alabama-Birmingham 75-70 on Saturday night in the Orange Bowl Classic.
The third-ranked Gators went 7-for-8 from the free throw line over the final 2:11.
