NCAA at 75 - College Basketball
43. Andre the Giant
"I'm never happy to have to take the last shot. I'd rather be up by 12 points." Those were Andre Turner's words following his second game-winner in the 1985 NCAA tournament. His first clutch shot came against Alabama-Birmingham in the second round with 5 seconds to play. His next highlight unfolded in the closing seconds of a 59-57 win over Boston College in the Sweet 16. Both were 17-footers that helped Memphis State advance. That squad reached the Final Four, where it lost to Villanova. It was a special season for the program, because the core of the team was composed of local products. Turner's performance, however, was clearly one of the most memorable moments of that season's tournament. -- Myron Medcalf
