They still play the same song every game green and gold!
One of the Greatest Calls of all Time! 😁
"By George The Dream is Still Alive! "
One of the best games I've ever witnessed
love that call
The thing is Uconn seemed to peak too early that year. They had a tough game against Kentucky in the 2nd Rd, needed overtime to beat Washington in the Rd of 16 and found themselves in overtime again here. Come to think of it they lost to Syracuse in the BE quarterfinals, another OT game. The Final Eight was respectable. Don't think they would have gotten past Florida that year. GMU had a great run.
I'm on the current 2016 basketball team for Mason they have the talent to make another historic run
Greatest Cinderella run of all-time!
A decade ago, and I remember it like it was yesterday. One of the greatest Cinderella stories ever. They would finally lose to eventual champion Florida in the Final Four.
George Mason played basketball, too? I thought he worked for CTU all his life. :)
2015 Anyone?
Why doesn't ESPN do a 30 for 30 on this run? What are they waiting for, it writes itself!
John Vaughan Is My Uncle But He Was Red shirted That Year
Crazy this was actually uploaded in 06
George Mason University Basketball is the best in the country. Go Patriots!!!!!!!
Loved it!
Bill Raftery is easily the best commentator ever. ONIONS! I thought UConn probably had the best team in the country that year. What an improbable run by George Mason. They set the table for VCU & Butler later.
agreed, always ranked as one of the top shots in GMU basketball history
