Favorite clutch shot from the Pearl era

[gordonr24]

I thought I'd make an interesting thread. I'm curious to see what Big Orange fans believe as the best shot from the Pearl era. There are a lot to choose from. Here is just some that I can remember from recent memory. Feel free to add more and choose which is your favorite.

Lofton over Durant
Lofton against Winthrop
McBee for three
Tyler Smith against Memphis
Hopson three to beat Florida

My favorite is Lofton over Durant. I still can't believe he made that shot. :clapping:

Lofton > Durant. Easy.

 

[Kingston Vol]

Too many to name a favorite...

Lofton over Durant. No question.

JP Prince blocking Turner.

Lofton against SC in the SEC tourney was a good shot too. Considering he was like 1-10. And Hopson's against UK was just as big as McBee's.

CL over Durant running away.

JP Prince blocking Turner.

If this was a favorite play thread, this would be my pick hands down.

Def Lofton over Durant. When he fired it you could hear a pin drop in TBA then it went in and the place exploded.

No doubt.

There was a game when Bradshaw made some clutch free-throws with the injured wrist, can't remember the game though.

I believe that was against Oklahoma State in 2006. He also made the game winning tip if I'm not mistaken. That's another big shot to add to the list.

the one against Winthrop kept us from being discussed every tournament in the 2-15 matchup but I would probably choose Lofton vs TX

100011101. oh wait, wrong clutch. sorry

What about when Summitt hit that clutch three against Middle Tennessee to secure the Hardees giveaway?

 

[VolfanatETSU]

Lofton over Durant is my choice, although I also remember that game down at Vandy where (if I recall) the time was running down in the first half and he pulled up from a step or 2 past half court and knocked it down.

 

[UTVOLS107]

Lofton's shot over Durant and McBee's shot against Kansas are pretty much a tie for me.

The steal and breakaway layup by Dane Bradshaw against then #1 Florida to ice the game. Easy.

That was Smith right before half time.

 

[chavisut]

Loften over Durant

def my all time favorite moment in TBA! I hugged an elderly man standing next to me in the chaos that followed. I have no idea who he was.

That's a good one too. All that happened so fast though I don't remember being able to really take it all in until a few seconds later when I realized the game was sealed.
