Junior center Steve Downing scored 47 points and grabbed 25 rebounds to pace unbeaten Indiana to 90-89 double-overtime victory over seventh-ranked Kentucky in a college basketball contest Saturday night.
A crowd of 18,000 saw Kentucky tie the game at 74-74 at the end of regulation time when guard Stan Key hit a 15-foot jumper with six seconds remaining.
Each team scored eight points in the first overtime, with Kentucky guard Ronnie Lyons having a shot bounce off the rim at the buzzer.
Then, in the second overtime, Downing, playing with a heavily taped left leg, scored his team's first five points and Jerry Memering sank a final free throw that proved tp be the Hoosiers' winning point.
The victory moved Indiana to a 4-0 season mark, and dropped Kentucky to 3-1.
