The Moonshot

Given he really f'in launched that thing, and it happened the same week as Artemis.
For those younger than dirt....

My brother and I call it the "F-bomb", since it essentially did that to Duke and if UConn doesn't win, we're of the mindset, "ef-Duke, anybody but them." And it's a nod to Hurley's mom as well.

Call it whatever you want. I'm just glad it happened.
 
Always having this all time victory "shot" to look back on, coupled with it coming against Duke makes the NC loss a bit more more acceptable. I'd be ok calling it "the painkiller." Getting to a final four alone is an incredible feat.

The immaculate deflection is a great one

Plays off an already well known phrase

Rolls off the tongue

Just sounds like something they’d repeat a ton on ESPN
I'm into it - Immaculate Deflection gets my vote

That one is taken by not one, but two football moments. Also, I'm old enough to vaguely remember Moon Mullins, and I don't recall it being affiliated with Popeye, Olive Oyl, etc.
 
The Moonshot has some staying power

Boozer beater is funny but can't give them naming rights

Immaculate Deflection puts the emphasis on the steal, which was great, but it was the shot we'll remember
 
Mullins March Miracle

Just happy to see that snow go in………

Just went back and watched the last five minutes of the game again. I will do that over and over again. Just amazing.

I've been calling it the DC 3.

Every UConn fan knows what I'm talking about, and smiles.

Every Duke fan knows, and doesn't.
 
the rainmaker

the best part about this shot is how pure it was going through the net, the nickname needs to reflect this
