Caleb Love and big-time shots just seem to go hand in hand.
While nothing will ever top Love's dagger three pointer against rival Duke in the Final Four, his latest heroics is one that Arizona Wildcat fans will remember for quite some time.
Trailing by three to No. 3-ranked Iowa State in the closing seconds, Love drained a shot from beyond half court to send the game into overtime. That shot would spark the Wildcats, leading them to an eventual 86-75 upset over the Cyclones.

Fans of the UNC basketball program can attest that Love lives for the big moments, as his beyond half-court shot, one that seemed literally impossible, wasn't impossible for the former Tar Heel.

While Love's college career has had his fair share of ups and downs, he'll always be remembered for his heroics as a Tar Heel. It's great to see him continuing to hit big-time shots, as the hope is that he continues to do so as he closes out his college career this season.
