I know that Louisville won the NC against Duke with "Never nervous Pervis" as he was just a freshman. Then next season they put this 3 point in. I remember Denny Crum hating it and I believe that Louisville did not make the NCAA Tournament that following season.

Rut, You are right and I stand corrected.
I looked up the box scores to the NCAA finals from 1986 Louisville 72-69 Duke, and 1987 Indiana 74-73 Syracuse. I found that only the 1987 game lists 3FG-A as a stat. Conclusion, there wasn't a 3pt shot in the 1985-86 season, as I incorrectly stated previously. I do however believe that the 45-second shot clock was used in that season.
PS Alford hit 7-10 3pt goals for Indiana in that win.
