Jordan Poole and John Beilein Steal The Show For Michigan (Videos)
Saturday, it what can easily be classified as the signature moment of the wacky first two rounds of the 2018 NCAA Tournament, Michigan’s Jordan Poole nailed a three-pointer at the buzzer, sinking the Houston Cougars 64-63.
The number three seeded Wolverines will now take on seventh seeded Texas A&M, at the West Regional, Thursday night at Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles.
