Barnes' Big Shot Sends No. 13 Tar Heels Past Florida State, 72-70

Posted Mar 3, 2011
It will be a while before Florida State fans forget Harrison Barnes. The 18-year-old North Carolina freshman coolly hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key with 3 seconds to play that gave the 13th-ranked Tar Heels a 72-70 victory and silenced a boisterous Seminole crowd. "Great players make great plays," Florida State coach Leonard Hamilton shrugged. "That's about as good as it gets." (Tar Heel Blue)
