Those who badmouthed the team and gave up better out themselves now, and save the embarassment

 

[Edward Sargent]

Lord thank you for this blessing

Braylon Mullins- Church Bells for onions

BTW-One of the best Tournament comebacks I've ever seen.

Next

Karma is b1t@h... that's all.

Mullins is elevated to Laettner status

 

[Shamon30]

That ending will continue to be played until the game of basketball no longer exists

Nice Shot kid, that was one in a million

1:30am Monday morning here in Poland. Little chance I sleep before work here in 5 hours.

1. Braylon "Bucky Dent" Mullins vanquished the ghost of Christian Laettner.
2. I thought Karaban's dive and save was the big momentum turner that told all the players to keep hustling.
3. Hubert Davis is relieved.
4. Reed was a beast
5. So happy for the players who are experiencing this joy right now.
6. Just as happy for Danny and his staff.
7. Instant classic.

Never stopped believing until Silas's first free throw.

I thought UConn was just as good as Duke and the big Duke lead was just constant misses of 3 pointers.

We hit 4 of 5 to end the game and won.

I lost my mind a little bit when Ross didn't close down Ngongba for the 10 second call, but otherwise I had a lot of belief.

Never count them out!!!

I'll admit it - when the ball went to Braylon at the logo my heart sunk. So glad to see Mr Indiana come through just when we needed it most. What a SHOT. We'll remember this one for a long, long time.

Gotta hand it to Duke, their D is good and Cameron Boozer is a full on load. Scheyer can coach, he came out with the right game plan - take Alex out and stifle Reed as much as they can. Loved Hurley's post break counterpunch and the "never say die" attittude of the squad. So many games this year the 3s just wouldn't drop but they never threw in the towel and the win record reflects that.

GO HUSKIES

All of the hype, once again, around Duke and their team bond and their superior personnel and UConn just not having the horses... nope. Didn't matter. We didn't give up, and somehow, some way a shot for the ages was made. Eighth Final Four for UConn.

 

[TrueBlue22]

I love everyone here. Every single one of you.

We will forever share THAT MOMENT.

Add it to the list gentleman.

Few moments in my life will ever equal that, same goes for all of us I am sure.

BLEED duck**NG BLUE

 

[BarkingDog]

73-72

 

[Dove]

that has to be the most brutal way to lose an elite 8 game

10 seconds...

Turn it over and...

Miracle heave for three!!!!!!!!!!

ITS GOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ahmed69]

That was the most shocking UConn win in my life...

Reminded me of the 2004 matchup. Uconn struggled for most of the game but made a run with 3 minutes left

 

[Edward Sargent]

Duke didn't give anything up, UConn took it.

Can I like this a lot!!

 

[Hey Adrien!]

This is the most hyped I've been for a non-Championship game in maybe ever?!?!?!?!

 

[FfldCntyFan]

The two most joyous moments in life:

Watching you minutes old newborn look at you when the nurse hands him to you.

Making Dukies cry.

 

[Big L]

Really none of us should ever have to buy a beer in a bar where there are UNC fans.

As a UConn alum and NC resident, I wholeheartedly concur.

 

[uconnblueinky]

What's funny is all boozer had to do was hold on to the ball and get fouled right?

 

[controlfade]

Now Duke is out where does Ruff turn his attention to now

 

[Dove]

Lord thank you for this blessing

Again!

UConn the 1 in 134-1

 

[ColchVEGAS]

That is what you call heart. Kept fighting and ripped their soul out.

 

[Mike9904111]

Duke didn't give anything up, UConn took it.

Without a doubt.

We couldn't shoot the ball from 3 all day. We had some start falling. Stayed tough and in it even after being down big. This team has tremendous heart, no quit.

 

[WaterDawg]

UConn grit prevails!

 

[scdono]

Amazing end of the game. It all happen so quickly but Braylon let it fly. Amazing. Perfect night!
