Pre 3 point Era. I was at this game 13/14 years old. UK down 10 vs Tenn. 1:14 to go and a timeout called. 5,000 people leave Rupp Chapman goes off. Game goes into OT. 5,000 people try to get back in. (Not gonna happen) UK wins by 10. Priceless memory.
Reed Sheppard has the biggest heart in college basketball... Upon each mistake made he redeems himself by making great play after great play. Already legendary.... Go Wildcats!!
Yes Matt!!! 20 sec in. I starting watching UK basketball in 1975. I was born in 1972. Yes, I was almost 3 years old. You're not old enough to remember but let me tell your viewers what you mean. Indiana had just went undefeated in '73 -'74 and were still undefeated during the NCAA Tourny in '74 - '75. ( I might be off a year) I believe it was in the 2nd weekend of the tourney when this happened. UK won and broke IU'S win streak and Joe B and Bobby K went to shake hands after the game. After shaking hands, Joe walk past Bobby and Bobby smacked Joe in the back of the head with a game program. I was sitting in my dad's lap watching the game with him. Not truly knowing what I was watching. After that happened? He picked me up and said to me, " Did you see that? Did you see that?" That was the moment my Blood turned Blue!
@@wesleygordon9413right. and not fouling on that last defensive play after we’ve lost a game that way this year. people just see wins and losses and say whatever
The one thing that makes this team different to me and I've heard many people say it. It's the way these players are so likable. Watching them perform on the court will make you bi-polar sometimes, but they are a great group of guys with mountains of talent. Go CATS!
The Quade Green one happened in a similar situation. Full court run with a couple of seconds and Green just takes it straight to the basket for layup. Defense must have expected us to call time out so they didnt really guard him. This doesn't really stick out that much cause Green got an eye injury then sat out for a while and SGA took off and stole his starting position.
Matt you and KSR think basketball didn’t begin till 2000 go back in the archives Kansas and Kentucky down 6 with 6 seconds to play and this was pre 3 pointer greatest game I ever watched
RD hit and scored 7 crucial points at the end of this game, he took control and Reed finished it, but all players made plays big Z had like 5 blocks and a statement dunk...this was a great game and I turned it off with 7 minutes 1st half will not happen again
He had a beautiful looking shot. I was a little kid when he was playing at UK...my friends and I used to call him "Roger Hard On"...lol. I felt bad for him because was replacing guys like Jim Master and Dickey Beal.
thanks matt for giving props to cal and the refs and freedom of movement rule in 2016 took aeay cals defense..they call garbage on our bigs and screw us on drives where teams will just drive right at us and get ticky tack foul calls.
DJ Jeffries 0-4 against UK with a total of 19 points. His Dad said UK was unprofessional cause UK didn't keep recruiting him AFTER he decommited. Everyone knew he was going to play for his EYBL coach Hardaway at Memphis.
Mississippi State was so sure they would win they had extra security for students storming the court. Looks like those security guards got to watch a great game and not have to work. 😂😂😂
We will think about this game if it propels us to a SECT title, and a great tournament finish. If not, the heat will continue on Cal and everyone will just remember how much we miss Sheppard and Dilly after this year.
Tiffs is my favorite win this year. With all the no calls and bad calls they still found a way to win, I mean Justin got fouled on that drive to the basket Rob didn’t foul when he poked that ball away it wasn’t a foul and the block Z got want a foul. I’ve already watched this game 3 times and that officiating crew has been terrible all year
Spacing Spacing Spacing..!!!! Playing Z at 5 opens everything up.. I know there will be games he can’t play the 5 but when he does we are unstoppable on offense
Watch the post game show cal will not give credit to Sheppard for what he done CAL brings up DJ DJ plays to win DJ this DJ that and CAL is a smart ass too the media all the time I don't care for the man it's not only about the players like he says uk pays CAL 2 be a contender an competitive for a national championship PERIOD NOT TO BE A LAUNCHING PAD too the NBA I would love to have the coach Ucon has
Matt cmon, this was a really great win in the regular season, against a good unranked team. But we have shown over and over this season that we have major difficulty executing for extended periods, closing games out, and holding leads. In March, it will likely result in a 2nd round loss again in the NCAA because Cal will just flat get out coached once again. It always the blue elephant in the room! The hype after these good wins gets tiring, because we know in our hearts that this team is really good, but not good enough to overcome Cals “in game” coaching flaws and arrogance at the big moments. I hope I’m wrong , but I’ve tempered my expectations.
Teams are losing respect for the Wildcats... The Winningnest Men's College Basketball Program in College Basketball history and teams are calling games before they're completed... ...I really think it's time for Cal to pack his bags, unless he gets an assistant that can help him with bigs to improve their low post skills. ...so disrespectful to BBN.

The last 5-10 seconds of this clip is great..Spot on 🤙

Loved this story!
if you are born and raised in Kentucky ... you get it
That’s why I love shepherd so much !!
Absolutely
Cal actually coached this game and he coached it well. It's like we saw the old Cal again. I hope this Cal sticks around. Great job coach!
You're kidding right? Up 8 with 57 seconds left and let them come back to tie. That's horrible coaching.
@@wesleygordon9413right. and not fouling on that last defensive play after we’ve lost a game that way this year. people just see wins and losses and say whatever

Our guards are the best in the country and it's not even close

The only thing missing was Rick Stansbury getting knocked over. 🏀 🤙 🪑

Yeah that’s why our games are all ESPN ESPN 2 Sec network or CBS. No ESPN PLUS GAMES. Best fan base
It was Quade Green vs Vandy at home. That's the "buzzer beater" he couldn't remember
I was thinking that too 😅
How bout the Reed Sheppard team in the elite eight versus Duke in 98
Roger Harden, look it up, dude was ICE COLD
He had a beautiful looking shot. I was a little kid when he was playing at UK...my friends and I used to call him "Roger Hard On"...lol. I felt bad for him because was replacing guys like Jim Master and Dickey Beal.
#9 Coming 🏀🏆⛹️
Great Reed Sheppard game. Another 1-2 seconds on the clock would have put the game in overtime. A well-coached M State team.
thanks matt for giving props to cal and the refs and freedom of movement rule in 2016 took aeay cals defense..they call garbage on our bigs and screw us on drives where teams will just drive right at us and get ticky tack foul calls.
Our starters matter. I'm tired of hearing this bs about "it only matters who finishes" the game. If it doesn't matter, then just put the walk-ons in.
BLUE
WHITE!
I love it when they started talking about court storming lol! don't storm the court! Reed Sheppard, I got this lol.

Usually I’m down to foul instead of giving up a 3 but man they pushed them around all game there rebounding is what got them the lead
Mississippi State was so sure they would win they had extra security for students storming the court. Looks like those security guards got to watch a great game and not have to work. 😂😂😂
I’m happy DJ made some shots but DJ Wagner had to be way better than DJ Jeffries in the tournament
Great team win. 👏

Reed Sheppard is Ready to Play in the NBA!!!
Spacing Spacing Spacing..!!!!
Playing Z at 5 opens everything up.. I know there will be games he can’t play the 5 but when he does we are unstoppable on offense
Yes Q Green had one
Matt Jones aren't you a Duke alum
Great show
Ok knowing that Reeds parents are big on education ...Is Reed Sheppard One and Done?
Yes
I sure hope not, but I just have a feeling. Not like Cal tries to KEEP GUYS...He'd push the waterboy out to the G-League if he could shoot...

Why is Reed not starting?
Keion Brooks had a game winner at Florida.
