Kentucky Freshman Hits Game-Winning 3-Pointer Against Perfect Defense To Beat Michigan

Kentucky is going to the Final Four after a 75-72 win in an incredible game against Michigan.

With the score tied 72-72, freshman point guard Aaron Harrison made a three-pointer with 2.6 seconds left. Michigan's Caris LeVert, one of the best defenders in the country, was all over him.

Kentucky came into the year as a heavy national championship favorite. With a freshmen class that was hailed as the best ever, everyone thought they'd tear through the regular season.
