NCAA at 75 - College Basketball

51. Forrest for 3

Georgia Tech trailed USC 78-76 after Rodney Chatman drained a baseline jumper with three seconds left in the second round of the 1992 tournament. After Georgia Tech's Jon Barry lost the ball out of bounds, it seemed the game was over. But officials ruled the ball bounced off a USC defender's leg, giving Tech one last chance with 0.8 seconds to go. From inside midcourt, Tech's Matt Geiger tried to pass to either Travis Best or Barry, but when both were covered, Geiger zipped a pass to freshman James Forrest, who hadn't made a 3-pointer all season. Tech coach Bobby Cremins started walking toward the USC bench to congratulate the Trojans, but Forrest caught the pass, turned and drained a 3-pointer from 24 feet at the buzzer to give the Yellow Jackets a 79-78 victory in Milwaukee. -- Mark Schlabach
