Kentucky and Santa Clara spark March Madness chaos as BOTH teams score barely-believable three-pointers to force OT
Fans were treated to one of the greatest March Madness spectacles ever after a stunning end to Kentucky’s game against Santa Clara on Friday afternoon.
With just 2.4 seconds left in the second half, Santa Clara thought they had sealed a win after Allen Graves hit a stunning three-pointer to put them up 73-70.
However, Kentucky’s Otega Oweh didn’t give up and, after the restart, sprinted down the court before firing a shot from the logo, which bounced off the backboard and into the net to tie the game, much to the astonishment of those watching on.
Oweh’s shot proved vital in the end for No 7 Kentucky, who went on to win the game 89-84 following a rampant overtime period for the Wildcats.
The Kentucky guard put in a stunning performance on the day, scoring 35 points, while producing a further eight rebounds and seven assists during the dramatic win.
