For Jordan Poole, Saturday's buzzer-beater against the Houston Cougars was a case of deja vu.

As Overtime noted on Twitter, the Michigan Wolverines freshman hit an identical game-winner at La Lumiere School in La Porte, Indiana. Not only did Poole call for the ball on the right wing just as he did in Saturday's 64-63 win, but he kicked his legs out in the same fashion before falling to the floor:

The Wolverines will now set out for Los Angeles as they prepare for a Sweet 16 showdown in the West Regional against either No. 2 North Carolina or No. 7 Texas A&M.
