INDIANAPOLIS (www.incnow.tv) - 5-11 walkon guard Alex Barlow hit a runner in the lane with two seconds left to lift Butler to an 88-86 upset of top ranked unbeaten Indiana on Saturday.

The Hoosiers led by seven at the half but went cold in the second half while the Bulldogs heated up to roar pass them and take a seven point lead.

Only a final second three pointer by Yogi Ferrell allowed the Hoosiers to carry the game into overtime.

The 8-2 Bulldogs, who likely will enter the top 25 off this win, were led by Rotnei Clark's 19 points.

Victor Oladipo and Cody Zeller each had 18 for Indiana, now 11-1.
