While fans may have been familiar with many of the buzzer beaters seen so far in our countdown, if not all of them, the clip seen today at number three may be new to you. We go all the way back to the 1981 tournament for this buzzer beater. The location? Our very own Frank Erwin Center. The teams? Defending champion Louisville, who was seeded 4th, and Arkansas, the 5-seed who had advanced after beating Mercer in the first round. And on the sidelines were two coaches who are now both legendary, Denny Crum for Louisville and Eddie Sutton for the Hogs.

Down 73-71, Arkansas had the ball with only fives seconds left to play and the length of the court in front of them. But U.S. Reed only needed to go half of that distance to make the game-winner…

According to Rivals.com, Reed is now a pastor in Arkansas after a break pro career. After being drafted by the Kansas City Kings, he failed to make the roster and spent the 1982 season in the CBA. The following summer he had a training-camp stint with the Spurs, but a knee injury cost him the season and effectively ended his career.
