When a fire alarm sounded in the final 49 seconds of the Arizona men's basketball game against the Wildcats from Bethune-Cookman, some in the loosely-filled McKale Center headed for the exits. But on the court, they played on. UA trampled the visiting BC Wildcats 107-71. Video by Cathalena Burch, Arizona Daily Star.
