(7) St. John's- 88, (10) UC Santa Barbara- 84 (OT) -- Another classic here, as Rysheed Jordan gave the Red Storm hope by hitting a buzzer beating three, and St. John's made free throws in OT to advance. The Johnnies were led by Jordan who had 27, while UCSB was led by Alan Williams who not only had 22 points, but also had 20 rebounds for an explosive double-double. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough as the first UCSB loss of the entire tournament ends up eliminating them.

Boo!
