I've gone to every ncaa tournament since 2005. Ive seen upsets, like Florida Gulf Coast vs georgetown, duke/lehigh, duke/mercer and george Mason's miracle run. This was the greatest game ive ever seen live.
in person?
Better than unc and Villanova at the championship your crazy
@@whiterose8601 did I see that live? No. I said carolina Kentucky was the greatest game I've seen live, in person
@@jacobadams5924 yes, in person
BLUE BLOODS!
One of the greatest college basketball games of all time
The best part of the UNC vs anybody games is that the announcers are always pulling against them
Can’t begin to say how satisfying this was after giving up 48 to Monk in December and having it rubbed in our faces.
and how much more satisfying it was to win the Natty afterward....
HunkpapaLakota It was bittersweet after 2016 but yes.
UK fought extremely hard to stay in that game. Can only do so much when the refs are on their knees blowing the game. I'm not even biased. 1st half was awful. 2nd half was called evenly.
@@wildcat0525 you shoulda saw the first match up if you thought the refs were bad in this one. UNC should have won the first match up.
@@scottworley1479 I did watch it. UNC got handed a chip.
Dear NCAA: Could you PLEASE upload EVERY tournament game and create put them in a playlist for each season. For example, all the 2018 men's tournament games in a playlist, all the 2018 women's tournament games in another, and 2017 men's in another, and so on. I think we would all love to watch a few games from the 1970's, 1980's, and 1990's. I would even gladly watch commercials if that is what needs to be done to put the games on KZhead.
DiscoWade I wish
The NCAA is no where near this organized. I wish it could be done too lol
They used to have the NCAA Vault that has a playlist of each year from ????-2011 but they only had sweet 16 games and later rounds but they only put like 1 game from an earlier round each year if it's a classic game or upset
Do some searching sometimes they show up when you least expect it.
Classic game between 2 of the bluest blue bloods. EPIC ending!! TAR HEELS!!
This was a true heavyweight fight and the 2 best teams in the country that year. It felt like 1992 Duke/Kentucky. On this day UNC wasn’t gonna be denied after the loss the prior year
The games between KY and NC are always classics, regardless of who wins. Great traditions on both sides. As much as I hated watching my Cats lose, it was a really great game.
Yep
It reminds me of Red Sox vs Yankees games its very intense
Wholeheartedly agree. I've been around long enough to see my Heels on the wrong side of these classics with Kentucky as well. It doesn't get any better than UNC-UK - like a heavyweight championship fight every time.
From a UNC guy let me say respect for UK it's always a tough game no matter the situation.
@@scottworley1479 😢like ❤you slyox
I watched this live and re-watching it now I got the same sense of joy. Thanks for the upload!
Good lord Kentucky had Fox Monk and Adebayo on the same team and still didn’t make the final four. Just shows that developing players will always trump one and done talent
So great watching this game again. Knowing the outcome, I could watch it without the tension that I felt before. One of my favorite Tarheel teams!!
I loved this team and the prior year. They all played with so much heart.
Not the most talented Carolina team, but definitely one of the easiest to love. They won the tournament on sheer willpower.
So hard to watch, but such a great game.
I've waited for this game for so long 😭😭😭😭
One of my favorite games of all time!!
Me too
Right after Kentucky put 35 in at the end he allowed his man (Luke may) to hit the game winner
What a strong Kentucky roster. Bam Adebayo, Malik Monk, and Deaaron Fox, such a great team.
Tar Heel fan here. Thought we were going to lose. Immediately after we won I booked flight to Phoenix.
What a job by Roy Williams with this squad
This is a bright spot in a not so good year (2019-2020 season) for UNC. Go Heels!
Carter Huff y’all won the chip...
Facebook Linked I meant the 2019-2020 season
Carter Huff ok
Another year that unc hasn’t not made ncaa tournament
@@rayhanbrown5716 another yr where louisville cant win without their prostitutes
Go tar heels I remember this I loved it when we beat Kentucky that year
Luke Maye was so frustrating to watch before this tournament. I wouldve never in a million years bet that he would score a point against kentucky in this game, much less be the mvp
He played great against Kentucky in the first game played between the two teams that year. It was in the first game they played that I realized he had potential. Up to that point I thought he would be a role player at his absolute peak. Had a great career at UNC.
thank you for putting this up. Grateful
The ending to this game was epic!!!! Thanks 👍
I love UNC and live in Memphis. I was at the game and surrounded by Kentucky blue and they went crazy Monk hit that shot, however i went crazier when Maye hit his shot. They all looked at me with digust and heartbreak. I LOVED IT. ONE OF THE BEST SPORTS EXPERIENCES OF MY LIFE!!!
Thanks for uploading my team’s win. the content is awesome. Go UNC!!
Our pleasure!
@@MarchMadness upload the full baylor vs unc
this was a legendary game that will always be remembered
Monk, Fox, and Adebayo?! I knew they all went to Kentucky but I didn't know they were all there in the same year.
Don't mean to be greedy, but i never did get to see the Oregon UNC game. Appreciate the extended highlight package, but when i bought the DVD, i expected it to have all 3 Final Four games on it. Instead it has just teh final. So i would love to see Oregon game. Thanks
Was thinking the same thing. That was a good game to. All of UNCs game this tourney were good after the 1st
Can you please upload our Final 4 win over Oregon
This was the de facto title game. As a UK fan it still hurts.
John Calipari’s first Final Four as Kentucky coach happened after an Elite 8 win over North Carolina (2011 - East Rutherford, NJ). Six years later, they meet in the tournament on a floor where Calipari used to coach on.
I always love it, MAYE FOR THE WIN!!!
We were on the other end of a back breaker a year before . This time we was the one giving the back breaker
Monk made the harder shot because being down and tied with a free shot is totally different.
I remember sitting in my dorm at ECU. Maye hit the shot & I got three noise complaints on me. Well worth it!
It looked like a few more tenths of a second showed right after Maye's shot went through the basket!!
It’s crazy to think the NCAA has all these games but won’t release them.
There are several full tournament games on youtube. You just have to look for them.
@@domblack6288. Yeah Bootleg Versions.
theo pinson the ultimate nba bench player
What a classic!
I love the crowd’s reaction to Luke’s shot.
THE TARHEELS BABYY BAY BAY BY
James Logan....YEEEEAAAA TAR HEELS BABY....UPSIDE DOWN IN 2019-2020....BAAAAABBBBYYYYY!!!!
@@kykrazy6050 ya still mad
Me and my friends said whoever won this game was gonna win the Championship and we were right. These two teams were the best in College Basketball that season and it’s a shame they had to meet in the Elite Eight.
I cant's believe this hasn't gotten more love, great idea!
I went to the doctor a few years ago and the doctor asked me what was the sky blue liquid coming from scratch on my arm and I said oh don't worry about that doc just stitch it up cause I bleed TARHEEL BLUE BABY.
Love our heels!
This sport of the college basketball is awesome !💪🏾🏀🐮💃🏾⚡️⛹🏿♂️🎶😎💵
Anyone else notice that Monk's shot at the end had like no spin
Thank you for uploading these classics. Please upload the 2000 Natty
This is on their previous account kzhead.info/sun/iNujmMZ6e2R_dGw/bejne.html.
Fox in the handshake line. Wow!
That game is in my top 10 of unc games so far
How can I get this on DVD?
turns out this was the NC game??
Great push up court With 7 seconds
I remember I missed this game because I was practicing my free throws with my dad
What a game . What a finish. I told people that we would meet Kentucky again. Theo back was key on shutting down Monk.
Jackson guarded Monk most of the game though.
@@Bob-te3le Monk still got shut down with the both of em guarding him. Revenge game. Go Heels! 2017 Champs
Can you do South Carolina vs Duke?
Victor Walston yes you love sc
THESE ARE MY 2 FAVORITE TEAMS IN COLLEGE BASKETBALL....ITS ALWAYS A TERRIFIC MATCHUP WHEN THEY ARE BATTLING ON THE HARDWOOD!
I’m gonna really miss Roy he is a great coach and great man hopefully we get better but I just don’t see us being US in the next 5 years
Checking in on if you still feel the same way after what we pulled off this year without him in Davis' first year.
In the 5 years NC win 2 title
Kentucky vs UCLA 2017 maybe?
1:21:50
I like the way Roy Williams just let them play it out but I got to get credit where credit is due that was a helluva shot from monk
LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKE!!!!
This was like the national championship game. Maye with the dagger after what we thought was a monk dagger.
What a shot by maybe big time
Merry happy
This game hurt as a Kentucky fan
i went "nanners" on Mayes's shot
Y'all know the rules hand down man down!
UK should have played Hawkins over briscoe more, he was much more efficient and effective
The best part about watching this replay is watching Kentucky fans celebrate, but knowing what's coming next...... :) #Tarheels
8:50
Great game but a lot of calls were really went to UNC's favor.
Beautiful
Boooooooy this one felt gooooooood
Kentucky fans be like "Yay!...see what had happened was..."
Dale Press....After this ONE lone game Kentucky fans be goin like North who?
its funny it was also 25 years to the day of the shot, duke vs kentucky 1992 when # 32 christian laettner hit the shot and 25 years later another 32 luke maye except on North carolina hit another big shot against kentucky
53:32 is the wildest stuff i have ever heard during march madness
1:04:36 1:18:10
Man I was so nervous I didn't watch the last 50 secs of the game I only knew my HEELS WON when I saw my neighbor outside running in the street jumping for joy SO I JOINED HIM😂🤣😂
@@scottworley1479 🤫🤣🤫🤣🤫
Maye Day !!!
Malik Monk is cold man 1:21:45
North Carolina Tar Heels #1°!
Man after rewatching this Nate Britt was a lot worse than I thought even back then 😂
thanks corona for this
can someone please put these teams in different regions, its getting old
Kentucky Vs UCLA sweet 16
Malik Monk is The Real Deal
bams real name is edrice ?
I blame Isaiah briscoe for the loss didn’t put a hand up vs Luke maye
That was Derk Fault he didn't guard anyone
@@georgeturner5599 Yeah, but you see his instinct was to guard the post for an easy layup. However, you are right. If he did cover Mayes, the shot would not have happened.
All that talky talk at the very end about "Did Pinson touch it or not?" and none of them mentioned that if he *did* touch it, then the game would have ended right there because the clock would have started and that .3 seconds would have been gone. Game over.
Finally
i remember this game. the refs weren’t fair lol
Kentucky really played poorly in this game - I remember watching it being amazed that they even had a chance late based on how badly they had played. They were an absolute mess most of the way but it shows how far talent alone can take you that they took the national champions to the buzzer in spite of that.
That was not Kentucky playing poorly..it was UNC defense taken Kentucky out of the game.
Edrice Adebayo tho
Dude is from North Carolina too. What a fool
@@stephenboykin4958 I'm talking about how the lineup thing said edrice Adebayo instead of bam Adebayo
@@lionfan3k330 well bam ain’t his Christian name
Willis lost track on that play
Yeah, after looking close at that play and seeing what happened in the final 9 seconds, it seems that Willis could have prevented this. However, you see that his instinct was to cover the post to prevent an easy lay up. So I don't blame him too much. Sad day but still a tough fight.

Well we sick this year thus be our gap year

The true Title Game ...
Classic I love it. Poor Cal
Looking back on this game... Kentucky had way more talent and still lost.
Higgins blew so many late whistles on UK. Still ticks me off
Imagine Kentucky Doing a villanova
Nope
