Alabama had three shots to either tie the game or take the lead after Collins missed the final free throw, but John Egbunu blocked one attempt and Levi Randolph missed a 12-footer on the baseline as time expired.

Randolph scored nine of his 12 points in the first half but South Florida erased a seven-point deficit and gained a 29-25 advantage by intermission.
