Thank you for adding this version of the original broadcast. Made for great entertainment for myself and fellow IU grads during a quarantine video conference today.
@@thehoosierfanatic2093 Check out Indiana Hoosiers basketball-bleacher report for Don Fischers complete game call. Man it was like it was yesterday hearing it!
Living through this in Bloomington at the time was like...knowing all week long that a hurricane (Duke) is about to blow through town. Upon it's arrival, you watch from the shelter of your unfriendly neighbor's basement (Rupp Arena) as the winds punish your modest little house (Indiana) with precisely the demolition job you might have expected (1st half), before suddenly dissipating (8 minutes to go) and by some miracle, all the debris magically lifts off the ground (Moye goes nuts), and not only self-assembles (3-point barrage over Kent State), but somehow upgrades itself into a mansion (73-64 over Oklahoma). I mean, the plumbing was still all jacked up (64-52 loss to Maryland) but the euphoria was too overpowering for anyone to notice.
One of my favorite games of the 2002 NCAA Tournament. Indiana had no business beating Duke, who were the defending champions. One of the major reasons was Indiana did a great job on the rebounding and stepped up their defense mid way in the second half.
This doesnt seem to ever be on lists on great NCAA tournament finishes but it should be. Obviously there wasnt a game winning shot but williams had a chance for a 4 point play to tie AND boozer all of a sudden had a chance to win! Crazy! If boozer made the put back this sequence would be an all-timer
Everyone remembers the way this game ended but Duke's final defensive possession was a disaster. Committing a foul 35 feet from the basket after letting 30 seconds run off the clock when there was no chance Indiana could have gotten a good shot out of that situation. Coming out of the timeout at 15 seconds the one thing they couldn't afford to do was foul.
Look at Jason Williams face right before he receives the ball to take that final free-throw. He was choking already 2:05:49. Also Boozer pushed off Jeffries to create space before he attempted the put back. Anyone saying Boozer was fouled should look at that pushoff.
A ref with no agenda or bias will definitely let the players decide these kind of games. Boozer had no business coming down to the floor to try to put that ball back in. Should have tipped the ball in when he first touched it in mid-air. Basic fundamental tip-in drill would have moved DUKE onto the next round. If you're looking for refs to bail you out @ the end, then you're keeping yourself from your own greatness. You become your own worst enemy. Finish the game buzzer to buzzer.
I'm a North Carolina Tarheels fan all day everyday. If that 2002 DUKE team was as great as the 1992 team like most of the sportswriters thought back then, then they would have got it done but their overall team free-throw percentage wasn't great. You have to be great in all facets of the game to be a true championship level team especially when you're trying to win back to back national championships. Anyone who actually knows basketball would agree 99.9% of the time
@@wendellphillips6251 That 92 team had paid off refs help them against IU in the Final 4 game. If an IU player just looked at a Duke player, it was a foul. I think only 1 starter didn't foul out, and IU still almost won that game.
what a shooting team!
RIP Dick Enberg
Legendary voice for a legendary game.
and hoosier alumn

Great game remember listening on radio Thursday evening till they showed last few minutes
Davis said in postgame that he got the gameplan from Maryland's staff! Lol...good gameplan...
And then that game plan got them in the National Championship Game.
1:44:25 seconds, AJ Moya ascended into eternal glory, leaving carlos boozer on the wrong side of glory
One of the best college basketball games of all-time. If Boozer had put that bunny back in, Duke was definitely playing Maryland for the title
Or survive in ot if Williams didn't choke the free throw
Duke flat choked that away. Boozer Indiana couldn't stop.
@@patrickgray5633 yep blew 17 point lead with team full of nba talent
If my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle too. Duke the game & blew it.
@@patrickgray5633 I don't understand. Who are you replying to?
Both schools from the 2001 National Championship Game went out on this same night of the 2002 Tournament.
Guess they missed the 01 blueprint

Of all Duke choke jobs, this tops the list.
Yeah this game and UCONN 2004 were bad blew big leads
Yep pretty much with this stacked team with Dunleavy and Boozer ..

Death to smootchy???? never heard of that robin williams movie wow
It's pretty funny
Who is the white Duke player screaming at the ref at the end of the game?
some bitch ass scrub... they have always been sore losers
@@Majesticon Preach
Haha I think it was Christensen
I thought he was going to clothesline him.
@@Majesticon 5 chips
Look I love IU & always will but Boozer got fouled so badly at the end you have to call something that bad.

@@wendellphillips6251 Well said. That was a simple tip-in drill. Boozer made it way harder by coming down with the ball.
@@wendellphillips6251 Boozer pushed off to create space for that rebound. Equals out.
