Grew up a diehard Kentucky fan, watched almost every second of the 2012 season with my Grandfather. He just passed away last August. This brings back the best memories. One of the best days in my life
sorry for your loss my man
RIP to your gramps my guy. I know it’s not easy. Keep his spirit and memory alive ! Live for him !
One of the 3 greatest sports days of my lifetime: 1996, 1998, 2012.
This is becoming more of a bittersweet memory with each passing year...
remember watching this spring break 2012
Being a Kentucky fan is difficult right now. Coming back to watch this helps.
oh heck yea, I watch the games for a no reason some times... 😐
Same lol they’re so trash rn
I feel your pain, I’m watching this myself!
😆
@@lydiadavis6745 fr because tc died
Anthony Davis was the GOAT of college basketball stars.
Nope. That would be Wilt The Stilt Chamberlain
One of the best 3 days periods of my entire life, starting from the Saturday 2 days prior. Toonami returned on Saturday night, The Rock beat John Cena at WrestleMania 28 on Sunday night, and UK won the national championship on Monday night. Talk about riding high; I'll never forget that weekend.
same! I was only 12 years old at the time and it was quite the weekend. My dad loved wrestling and UK basketball just as much, if not more than I did, and we got to have the sickest weekend. Beat little brother in the final four Saturday, watched Wrestlemania on Sunday, and the cats win the natty monday!
Right. But you understand wrestling is fake and technically "the rock" didn't beat John Cena because it's staged????
It was on my birthday!
@@fablez g
toonami?
and now AD champion in the nba league 💍🏆
16 years old, single wide trailer, 15 year old grainy tv. Me and cousin nearly dug trenches in the floor pacing back and forth pretty much ran circles around that small room, screamin and hollerin our lungs out. BLEED BLUE!!
2012-best year of my life (so far). UK wins the championship in April, graduate with my Master's degree in May, get married in June. Next year is the year! 9 years since 2012, that will be championship #9! You feel me??
I feel you ! Congrats on everything man and best of luck in the future , you’re off to big things my guy !
i feel you homie
Not if that team on I64 W has anything to do with it. L1C4. We stole some of the thunder that year in New Orleans.
Jesus loves you all❤️, allow him into your heart.
Well we are 1-6 so
Watching this game, I would have prognosticated AD to be a defensive specialist only in the NBA. This game showed his unique and monstrous blocking ability; as for his offensive game, he usually just followed the offensive flow by passing the ball. It was evident throughout the game, he didn't ask for ISOs or even shooting the open jumper. Hence, he didn't show any remnants during the game of who he is today. It really is amazing what practice and training can do to your game.
It’s not practice that transformed his game solely ! He was a point guard in before his growth spurt he already had that type of smooth game on the floor game but he was very unselfish and did what the coach asked him to do run the floor and block shots and he bought in to his role , Terrence Jones was the go to !
Terrence Jones was a beast!!
Living in Kentucky, i remember this night like it was yesterday. I was a senior in high school I never for 1 second thought we would lose this game. The team was so freakin dominate. Good times, us Kentucky fans was very spoiled then. Hopefully we can get back to the top
@Anthony Blue better than whatever trash program you're a fan of
@@austinmiller4832 Hes a lame duke fan.
Kansas was scrappy all night though.
try being an msu fan
most final fours since 2000, 0 championships
of those 6 final fours since 2000, 1 final four win, which was in detroit, followed by a 17 point championship loss
every time they get to the biggest state in college basketball they play like the lower seeds
this is the last time the #1 overall seed won
I miss sports
Sharkyologist1 facts life is different and quite with basketball
You and me both bro...
Jesus loves you all❤️, allow him into your heart’
The best memory i ever had as a boy use to watch kentucky basketball 🏀 with my uncle dickie 😢
Super TEAM and coaching effort, this 1972 grad thx you so much! Picks me up during this time in my life.Enjoy forever another WILDCAT championship...
I had never actually really watched this game properly before watching this!! I was too nervous, couldn’t bear to watch it that night!!!
I remember watching this game way before I became a basketball fan, hopefully we can win it all again soon
I went to ku and watching this is painful, but just gotta love how strong both teams are. Anthony Davis and Ben Mclemore becoming big names in the NBA, so glad it's back.
Not sure when Ben Mclemore became a big name in the NBA but okay
Who Ben
Ben who?
Terrence Jones was my fav player on that team ..
He plays in the G League currently; got to see him last night for the Grand Rapids Gold.
@@CaptainNoah0512 Niceee ! I'm kinda jealous 😂 jk but I'm glad he has found a home somewhere he definitely belongs ..
As a KU fan it's hard watching them missing so many close shots, it they would of made 50% of those shots they win easily but Kentucky made them think about each of those with their great defense
At least we got 2022 to make us feel a bit better.
3 of UNC’s players were injured, good win by Kansas but was deserved to UNC.
Did you see that defense anchored by Anthony Davis plus they didn’t get many looks on the perimeter Kentucky dominated these game defensively no way kanas had a chance to win this game
LOL @ "win easily." As if UK didn't miss any shots that they normally made all year
God I miss this team, freshman year was insane. Boy am I gonna miss Calipari :(
Some of the best moments I have from watching March Madness another one is Tyler Herro Going off late against Houston. One moment no from march madness has to be when Illinois State beat Wichita State in 2016 when Wichita St was ranked 21
Is it just me or whenever you go back and watch (if when you know who wins) is so happy and excited your team won 😂
Bill Self in this game NO McDonald’s all Americans on his team! Kentucky’s starting five all McDonald’s all Americans this game shouldn’t even of been close but shows how better of a coach Bill Self is the John Calipari!
Bill Self is a much better X and O’s coach than John Calipari while Cal is a better recruiter than Self
@@ChiefBlue4298 John Calipari gets more high profile players but what happens they leave after one year they don’t want to learn anything they just go there because it’s a trend. Bill self gets players like Ochai Agbaji who become NCAA tournament champion MVPs they don’t leave after one year so I’d say Bill Self gets the better recruits!
Kansas had 4 non tp100 recruits start 2022 National Title gm.
Beat UNC
@@jasonpeters9716 but was UNC starting five McDonald’s all Americans?? that’s the difference
i remember falling asleep mid way through the 2nd half and being surprised kansas made a final push
This year and the year with the blue and white squad we're definitely Kentucky's funnest calipari years!!! Good times
Great Kentucky team ! Jones was really battle tested ! And Lamb ! Teague was super ball handler ! Davis Kentucky Basketball history will mention his name always ! Best Center I ever saw play at Kentucky !
I'm surprised AD didn't get hurt. 🤓 #STREETCLOTHES
Jayhawks looked like they were gonna get blown out but they made it close but UK just would not go away and Anthony Davis was too overpowering
I watched this team beat a morehouse team by 85 points in a preseason game... The best team won the championship that year.
Can you do louisville vs kentucky in the final four 2012 and in the sweet sixteen 2014
The evolution of the basketball short in full effect this game. Went from short to long(as displayed in this game) but now they're just right
yea looks like 2013 was the last long shorts season before the change happened from what I can see.
Y’all remember when people thought Anthony Davis wouldn’t pan out offensively?
Now he’s the most skilled big man in the nba, unless I’m forgetting somebody
cousins too and they both came from Kentucky@@user-ry1bc9pb9t
經典的一場比賽
Thanks for the memories
My grandpa was a diehard Kentucky fan and passed away in 2014, a week before they played for the championship and lost. Kentucky basketball just hasn’t meant much to me since.
anyone here in 2024 just trying to feel something good? haha
Coach Cal left y’all UK fans with this Chip to remember him by
Kentucky number 5 in college right now and we beat Kansas by 18 at kansas
Kentucky lost to a 15 seed and Kansas won 2022 chip so at least we have that to cry too when looking back
And Micah that just showed how good Kentucky was when playing their best! At the same time the St Peter's debacle showed u absolutely can't take any opponent for granted! After that Kentucky beatdown at home, Kansas only lost two games the remainder of the season! Funny how things sort themselves out! Kansas just happened to be a better team when the BETTER was needed more! Of course St Peter's proved their win over the Cats was no fluke whatsoever!
@@bradlewis6514 yea but ai had a feeling that we were gonna lose that team always got injured in big games or we just didn’t show up I was so shock we beat Kansas like that but yea they ended up being the better team can’t argue about it
Lol...This comment didn't age like a Fine Wine.
KU wins 22 Championship.
KU unanimous Preseason #1 start 2023-24 Season.
GREAT GAME!
my dream ncaa final four
unc, duke, kansas, and kentucky
Close in 2022
My boyfriend likes basketball and I saw a picture of him wearing a Kentucky wildcats hoodie so I googled it lol, I don’t normally watch sports but he wants to be a basketball player and basketball seems interesting :)
what a match ! especially huge guys !
It's kinda weird seeing Kentucky-era AD
Tonight made the 12th time I've watched the replay of this game, and the Cats are 12-0. Shows how talented this Kentucky team was, because Kansas still hasn't managed to beat the Cats even once in any of the replays I've watched! GO CATS!!
Thanks for returning! It's a fun watch.
As a Kansas fan it hurts watching us lose every time they play. Thankfully I'm watching us play North Carolina in 2022 and we can't seem to stop coming from behind so that makes me feel better.
@@conmanspacehero307 And was oh so glad when you denied the Tar Holes JS! The sweetest of sound is the eminating of silence reverberating from the overly self absorbed and arrogant Carolina fanbase! Thank you Kansas
12th?
@@MarchMadness you want views
Let’s hope for a win in 2022
I feel good about this years team
@@matthew-tz1mk how about now?
Could you please upload 2018 Round of 32 Florida State vs Xavier ?
May you please upload 2017 First Round Michigan vs Oklahoma State.
nah, go cats
2012 best year for sports for me. Kentucky wins championship and Ravens won the superbowl. Good year😌
1:55
When you realize you forgot your homework
Davis is fantastic 😁❤️
2014 final four kentucky vs wisconsin?
Enjoy every last championship.
They are rare.
Anthony Davis is the 1st overall pick in new orleans hornets.
go big blue
Watched this one from Allen Fieldhouse in 2012. This is still so painful
Start watching the 2022 chip that one might help you feel better.
God Almighty, I miss this so much...Will we EVER win another Cbampionship with Cal...? I'm not sure, but I won't give up hope though...It DID hurt losing Kenny Payne though...I thought that could have been your next eventual Head Coach right there. ;_;
I think since this is such a terrible and unique set of circumstances surrounding COVID-19 and how the season ended so abruptly this year... That the NCAA should do the fair thing... And give ALL players an extra year of eligibility. So that no one; especially seniors, will have to go out the way they had to this year. If they so choose to take that extra year. Who agrees with this idea?
We Won It!
Who's watching this after Kentucky lost to St Peters?
Sometimes I forget AD ever played basketball with all the time he spends on the bench
Personally I think the greatest teams have been Duke ,UNLV, DEPAUL,Arizona,UCLA,usc,north Carolina,n.c. st., GeorgeTown,Memphis,UAB,Georgia tech,and so many more great teams I can't really think of them cause I get so excited watching great exceptedtional basketball
I'm just curious, among these players on this league who made to NBA?
Great game
I hope we’ll return to that title game.
Their Shorts was too long back then 😁😁😁
1:16:42 - That was KU's last chance
My thing is we run this offense till this day
I can’t blame all of this on Cal
Hopefully he makes it till next year n he make that’s run Because if not i don’t not know what’s gonna transpire
Probably Nba but there’s a really good class coming in I think it’d be dumb to loose it
Tyshawn Taylor was a dawg
We should have at least two more championships come after this 😔
I despise Obutthead then and years later my feelings haven't changed.
The next mj he’s getting 7 in a row
I'm surprised Streetclothes wasnt injured during this game.
Man... What made Charlotte pick MKG? He doesn't hold an offensive game (besides driving hard to the basket). Clearly, Charlotte's scouting report was terrible (and is terrible). It's not surprising why they are a lackluster team.
Charlotte's scouting was trash and they proved that lots of times: Biyombo with #7, next year MKG with second pick and Cody Zeller with 4th in 2013. Maybe Miles Bridges and P.J will be something special someday
He had an engine that never stopped. He was a GREAT college player. He was strong enough in the lane to make his own shots and made enough open jumpers to supplement that defense. He was a winner. You can't always judge the game by the stat sheet.
Rock chalk!
Feels a bit better now, don't it
Need that Wichita vs Gonzaga game.
How many National championship do Gonzaga have 🤷♂️
@@justinwhite2813 oooookay?

Cals stalling offense almost cost them.
Now Kansas is a power house 🏡! Can’t a key ! Who ?
2024 team was a excellent team ! Respectfully ,,,,,hope Coach Calapari does what's best for Kentucky Basketball !
He did. He left 😂
Steve Kerr was a really good announcer before he went to Golden State
awesome player awesome announcer awesome coach... it's crazy really.
And analyst! The man flat out knows basketball! And his acumen is off the charts
2022 2023 And I had Come bck watch This And Help Me realize how Terrible Our teams Have been last 3 yrs..
Let's Go Brandon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nikka, you got the gat tucked with you FOR WHAT?!?! You all love each other so dearly... Its a shame actually
GO BIG BLUE...

KENTUCKY ROCKS!!!!
Sarah Ferry
All it took was a super team for John Calipari to win a national championship with Kentucky, because other than that is a lot of choking and misery
this is the last time the #1 overall seed won

Audio volume is too low, can barely hear the announcers.
Proverbs 25:27
It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory.
KU lost any hopes on that Elijah Johnson crazy drive to no man's land under basket.
Kansas just dwn 7, 3:30 left
Why is our team not like this anymore?
Bruh look at the score. It’s defense Cal no longer prioritizes defense when recruiting lol. I don’t blame him. He’s a guards coach and guards don’t get paid to play defense in the NBA anymore
@@deez9805 You are right man lol
@@youpindao24 imma unc fan but bc of John wall, Booker & Ulis I been a huge UK fan since and I’ve been noticing it since yall had Maxey. Cal’s big guys get drafted and do well but only Bam, Boogie & AD were getting big money in the pros. But how many all stars and max guys at wing and guard has he coached? He knows what he’s doing lol. That’s why he went with Aaron instead of the portal for a big. Aaron makes it easier to get DJ.
kansas got their championship comeback
