In Florida's overtime win over Kentucky, the Gators' Nick Calathes dominated the extra period (OT play-by-play sheet). He was 10-for-10 from the free-throw line (he was only 3-of-7 in regulation), hit a three-point shot, and got two rebounds. There's no truth to the rumor that he also drew up Florida's offensive plays, taped the players' ankles, and cooked the pre-game meals.
