Douglas then missed a free throw with Alabi grabbing the rebound and then missing a layup.

Clinch then missed a three-pointer on the other end but then a rebound and turnover by Florida State's Derwin Kitchen left the ball with the Yellow Jackets.

Peacock then hit a clutch jump shot to give Georgia Tech the lead 62-61 with 28 seconds to go.

With six seconds left in regulation Kitchen hit an astounding reverse layup to give the Seminoles a 63-62 advantage.
