If Laettner wasn't the one that shot it, than the loss hurts less. It was a great game. But he tarnished it a little because of the praise he receives for his shooting but he acted like a jerk during the game.

The 1998 game may well have been the best game of 1998.

 

The 1992 game was arguably the best college game ever. That's why the media forgets about the 1998 game.

 

Laettner was 10-10 from the field and 10-10 from the free throw line. It doesn't get any better than that.

 

Remember Thomas Hill's face of disbelief when it was over? Yeah, me too.

 

Your Boy shouldn't have been in the game

 

 

I know I'm :deadhorse: but facts are facts, he should have been thrown out of the game.

I like to remember the 1978 National Championship Game. Probably too long ago for most of you young whippersnappers on here. :lol:

:thumb::thumb: On both statements!!! "Goose" Givens flat out abused Duke in that game..........41 points I believe!!

 

Also, about your avatar....:ylsuper:

:thumb: "The shot" was not the point, that guy (I refuse to say his name to this day) should not have been in the game to make that shot. Yes, it is :deadhorse:, whnever I think about it I still get :madman:.

 

 

O.K., I'm over it again now.

Hardcore rivals, that's what they are.

Honestly, I thought Timberlake told him to step on his chest so Christian wouldn't fall and hurt himself because he wasn't to get hurt as bigger things were to come. I thought it was good of Timberlake to offer up his chest like that. Isn't that why Pitino kicked Timberlake off of the team?

Just couldn't resist could you...? :lol:

I think KY hates Duke a lot more than Dunk hates KY. That was the greatest game ever and the reason it was even more tough for UK fans to deal with was because it was against "The Unforgetables". I really doubt UK will ever have a team full of KY raised kids that grew through what those guys went through in college. I still think about Kansas running up the score while UK was down and UK waxing him after that when I see Roy Williams. Personally I love playing Duke because I have a lot of respect for their program. It is usually and outstanding game!

Vern Lindquist will forever be one of my favorites for the way he spoke out on the play. Len Elmore tried to play politician and said, "I don't know if he meant to do that or not."

 

Vern immediately and sternly said, "OH, yes he did."

 

I'm not one of those who believes he should have been thrown out. Mainly because it wasn't much of a stomp. It was intentional but not injury provoking.

 

That was an awesome performance by Goose, and like Hatz said, a really dominant team that sometimes gets a bit overlooked.

 

Looking at that picture makes me wonder what were the players sitting on? Milk crates? It looks like they are right on the floor almost.

Thanks. I like it too!!!!

 

:lol:

Laettner got a technical foul for the stomp, and that's all that should've been done.

Alot of UK fans hate dUKe obivously for the 92 shot. However Uk fans and fans in general do as well b/c ESPN seems to have this love affair for them that is just crazy.

That game was played in the old Checkerdome in St. Louis. It wasn't really built for basketball. It was a hockey arena where the St. Louis Blues played. I've been in it quite a few times before it was torn down. It wasn't as big as the picture make the stands look.
