Wow. That site is awesome. I hate having finals the opening week of the NCAA tournament. I will be spending way more time on sites like that then actually studying.

It was giving me some trouble last night after I posted this, but it's working fine now. Have you tried it again?

Watched the 2005 National Championship last night. I had forgotten how ridiculous Sean May was against the Illini. 10-11 from the field for 26 points. I'll definitely be checking out more of these when I have some free time over the next few weeks.

WOW!

Thank you so much for posting this. I always told myself I wish I could watch some of the old buckeye games in the tournament the past decade and now I'm able to.

I don't know about everyone else but i'm getting absolutely terrible quality on that site. It takes me over an hour just to get a game to load, otherwise I get about a second or 2 at a time before it glitches. It could just be that my college's server is garbage.

My quality is fantastic. The feed is even in HD! Just watched the whole Duke vs Indiana Sweet 16 game from 2002. Still the best college basketball game Ive ever watched.

Pretty sweet site. Kind of surprising that the OSU/Xavier game isn't on there, or at least Lewis' tying 3. Maybe GUS holds the copyright to that. :)

I fixed it for you Lalely lol. But I agree that game was a great one just very sad for me being a Duke fan. I wish we could get the old huddle thread of that game.

That game more than any other Duke game, I remember them missing so many shots inside of 10 feet it was crazy. Lots of missed opportunities in that one. Regrettable, but not terrible. Had IU won the title I would be more upset, but even if Duke would have gotten to the final Maryland would have beaten them.

and for the record, Duke playing a regional at Rupp is ridiculous. 98 and 2002 were awful experience. NO higher seeded team should have to face that.
It would be like OSU playing a tournament game at Assembly Hall or East Lansing.

Re-watch that game if you havent in awhile. I hadnt and I forgot how much Indiana just dominated on the inside, Jared Jeffries in particular. Duke couldnt stop him or Jared Odle.

I remember a lot of missed shots, but they werent necessarily lay-ups or easy shots (Jason Williams break away aside). The first half IU just couldnt stop Duke and turned it over at an incredible rate. In the second half it was the opposite, but IU also played MUCH better defense than Duke did. IU shut down the easy shots, imo, and worked the inside game. It was Mike Davis' best coached game.

This IU team early in the year hit 16 threes vs Wisky and then nailed like 11 vs Kent State in the next round. Vs Duke I dont think they even took more than 6 threes and only hit I think 2. They worked the inside game and it REALLY paid off.

I think I'll pass on the rewatch. I distinctly remember Boozer Jones and Dunleavy having 4 fouls at like the 5 minute mark and watching Jared Jeffries back down, turn left and shoot a little jumphook for a two. If he missed, he would charge tip it back to himself and put it back in. Not a rebounder on that team outside of Boozer. Ended up killing them down the stretch. They should've lost at Greenville to Notre Dame the game before.

That 2002 Duke team was LOADED! Boozer, Williams, Dunleavy, Duhon. If I'm correct they brought back everybody but Shane Battier from the 2001 Championship team. People was absolutely stun when they was knocked out by Indiana.
