HOUSTON—The record will reflect Lamont Butler's pull-up jumper that resulted in a victory at the buzzer, but true to its reputation, San Diego State secured a spot in the national championship game by virtue of stifling defense. Butler beat the buzzer with a shot that lifted the fifth-seeded Aztecs to a 72-71 victory over Florida Atlantic in the first national semifinal at the Final Four in Houston on Saturday. But it was what San Diego State mustered defensively in the second half that set the stage for Butler's heroics.
