Usually it takes until the next game before a player gets a chance to make up for a mistake that costs his team a chance to win. For Zam Frederick, it came much faster in South Carolina's 70-69 win over Florida Wednesday.

The Gamecocks were down one with Zam Frederick on the line with a chance to tie the game. Frederick missed and Florida got the rebound. Florida's Chandler Parson's got the rebound and was immediately fouled with 3.3 seconds remaining. Parson went to the free throw line in a 1-and-1 situation. He missed, and Mike Holmes made a perfect pass to a streaking Frederick for a game-winning finish.
