The Florida Gators are national champs, which meant their 7'9" freshman center Olivier Rioux got to do his famous net-cutting trick one last time.
Through each step of the Florida's title run, Rioux cut the net with his feet on the ground with no need to use the ladder standing beside him. He did so after Florida won the SEC tournament, then again once they made the Final Four in San Antonio. On Monday night, the third time was the charm as the Gators outlasted the Houston Cougars 65-63 in a thriller to win the national title.
