That shot had everything! Transition, dribble down and back out...mid range with ball release under 1 second. Hand in the face. Nothing but net!! Just as clutch as you can get. Young man had composure!
Same. Whole neighborhood went ape while I was washing my car. I don't follow basketball but I immediately knew what happened. Also helped that the guy across the street started yelling "Aztecs win! Aztecs win!"
64 YEARS OLD BORN AND RAISED IN BROOKLYN NEW YORK CITY I'VE BEEN A PADRES FAN SINCE AUGUST 1 1972 BECAUSE OF NATE COLBERT AND ALLAN WIGGINS AND A CHARGERS FAN SINCE 1978 BECAUSE OF DAN FOUTS AND A SDSU FAN SINCE 1999 AND I NEED TO MOVE TO SAN DIEGO IMMEDIATELY
This reminded me of the game earlier in the season that San Diego State won in OT against Colorado State. I had a few thousand on SDSU, and I was so close to cashing out, but eventually I just stopped caring and decided to ride it out. Games like that reminded me of how effective defense can keep teams in games.
part of the problem is roster size. It’s easier for smaller programs to have competitive basketball teams cause 1 or 2 guys can totally change a team. with football you need a lot more talent
Nah it’s easier in college basketball cause there is ballers in every conference but it’s harder to find more talent in the smaller FBS schools. Basketball rosters are only like 12-15 so it’s easier for lesser programs to get ballers
Football unfortunately cant and wont work like that. The top programs get all their positions filled with top tier size and talent. Smaller programs just dont wow athletes in like that so they get the second pickings and it makes a huge difference. The top 10 college football teams would 99/100 times beat a team outside top 50. Don't count early week "upsets" either. You cant rank teams properly in college the first couple of weeks.
Awful coaching by Dusty May Goldin couldn't hit free throws, rebound, or play defense. Davis threw the ball away at two critical junctures of the game. That's what you get when you recruit unathletic bigs and low-IQ ballhandlers.
I'm so happy for State! Go Aztecs!!! I lived in San Diego for 15 years! 87-2002 , screaming all the way from Goldsboro North Carolina......Go Aztecs!!! SDSU!!!
@@mxl_reps_951 Aztecs good in baseball, but not sure if they won it all yet. Fresno State Bulldogs won it all though about 15 years ago over Georgia Bulldogs.
Great battle of good mid major teams. Congrats to both squads! SDSU rallied to beat FAU. FAU will be good for years to come, tuff team. It was like 2011 (Butler vs VCU) when 2 mid majors faced off in the final Four
@@nasairazul4889 I was thinking the same as you looking at it in real time it seem like they did so I slowed it down to super slow motion to check! Hell of a ending as I graduated from FAU and I do love the Aztec of Uconn! Tomorrow night!
FAU's defense was on LOCKDOWN. No team on the planet could not have defended that any better. No man was open. No man was able to cut to the basket. Shot was contested. That was just a good shot by a good shooter and it went in.
I know some may consider this year as a 'weak' year for the championship, but I love it. March Madness is living up to the name, so much madness this year! FAU was so close, but also congrats to SDSU in making it all the way to the championship!
San Diego State is far from weak. Offensively they’re relatively average but they’re experienced, big, scrappy and can challenge a variety of different teams til the final whistle.
Reminds me of Michael Jordan’s shot against Georgetown. Would love to see this kid blossom into an NBA star. You can tell he has more on the offensive end to show us next season, and he has the same humble, unselfish, and hard working demeanor that Kawhi had at SDSU. The Butler did it!!
March madness......kudos to all these teams and FAU played their hearts out. Its unfortunate but one of these had to win. I enjoyed every second of this game as a dan....just basketball fan and had no teeth in the game. Amazing game! ❤
Textbook...squared up his upper and lower body, got exceptional lift from his legs, rose up from his toes, and the form: the left hand guide, and the coup de gras..how he used his right shooting arm to separate the shot from the guide hand, propel the seemingly shot-put like release, the wrist flip at the end....from lift to landing this shot was perfection. And all off the LEFT HAND dribble!
As a Navy Veteran who was station in San Diego Im excited for y'all. I used to party at SDSU and had some good times in San Diego. Honestly when y'all made the tournament I was like ok let's see what they going to do. I believe it was Houston y'all beat . I was like oh okay they for real. Anyway good luck in the Champion. This old sea dog is rooting for you.
@Roth Child in that situation, the ref will NEVER, repeat, NEVER make that call even if the situation was reversed and an FAU player was driving to take the last shot.😢
There is another SDSU player who called game at the buzzer to advance to the next round! His team eventually won the NBA Finals… and one of the greatest playoff runs in NBA history.
Fans always want to cheer for the underdogs in the beginning of the tournament and now many sports analyst want to complain that there are no top 3 seeds remaining. There was one sports commentator that stated that we have 4 junk teams remaining and the tv ratings would be at an all-time low. (What a low life reporter himself) This has been my favorite tournament of all time and it is nice seeing some new blood getting the spotlight now!!
That was one Great Game!!!. i always feel bad for who didnt advance!!! But for both SDSU n FAU... WOW the Owls, you are a killer team.. great shooting!!! SDSU Fight Fight Fight... its a rematch vs UConn!! It's what it needs to be..
