So when you get into a game like this, where there are a lot of offensive possessions, and you are playing efficiently, you are going to get some numbers.Hart made 11 of his 14 shots, including 6-of-8 from beyond the arc.Efficient indeed.It really comes down to making the right play, Hart said.

I think that was the biggest part of the efficiency.UCF advanced to the championship by virtue of a 60-40 victory over the College of Charleston.

Hes done a terrific job with his team. Ive watched them over the years, what theyve done, hes built an amazing program. We have a chance to play for a championship. It will be a great opportunity for our guys to compete against one of the best teams in the nation.UCF graduate transfer Nick Baynard has earned double figures in rebounding in all three wins and he had 10 rebounds, four points and three assists in the win over the Cougars.

Both halves, I thought we were as engaged as weve been this year.Corey Davis Jersey .Y. -- Marcell Dareus and the Buffalo Bills defence made life miserable for Super Bowl MVP Joe Flacco.
