When Iowa State took the floor in Tuesday's consolation round against Dayton, Gilbert shined once again and got late-game redemption. He posted his second-straight 20-point game, but he also had a clutch series of plays over the final minute to give the fifth-ranked Cyclones a hard-fought 89-84 win against the feisty Flyers.

A tale of two halves may be a cliche phrase, but sometimes it is accurate. Monday's game between No. 4 Auburn and No. 5 Iowa State was one of those times.

By the time Auburn took the lead with about four minutes to play, Iowa State snapped back into action, even taking an 81-79 lead with 50 seconds left off two Gilbert free-throws. But Auburn quickly answered, as Dylan Cardwell found Miles Kelly inside for a cutting layup, setting the stage for the pivotal last 30 seconds.
