The BIGGEST Upset In NCAA History
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 бер 2018
- When UMBC took on Virginia in the first round of the NCAA tournament, no one could've predicted the sixteenth seed would upend the 1st seed. However, it was a perfect clash of modern basketball vs old school fundamentals, and Coach Nick shows you why the Retrievers beat the Cavaliers.

As a Umbc alumni to give you some perspective I graduated in 2017 and our most popular team was the chess team. Proud retriever believer
👍👍👍🏀🏀🏀
Any GM's yet?
Jason Young I remember hearing about how your school website shut down after this dub lol
I live right next to umbc
I think the Swim is also good too. Now the basketball team is average again.
5:35 "it looks like he's stuck in nba 2k CHEESE" LMAO Coach Nick you watch Chris Smoove too? lol
Haha yup!
5:33 not 5:35

Just shows how much basketball progressed, even best players can't win with traditional playstyle against disciplined new school team, as shown by triangle offense in new era
In all fairness, I don't think the failure of the triangle in NY was so much the triangle but the fact that the players weren't bought in. 'Melo absorbs possessions like a black hole eating space debris. Plenty of teams (including GS) run parts of the triangle successfully. With the right personnel and willingness, I think it'd still have legs.
Grillmachine00 warriors run triangle sets
parts of triangle, exactly. It has evolved into being a part of much more complex and effective offense, thus why vanilla triangle can not suffice in modern basketball, even with better players
Suzy Virginia was the unanimous #1 basketball team at the end of the season after being preseason unranked. De’Andre Hunter, UVa’s only NBA prospect and one of their best offensive players got injured the game before this and it messed up Virginia’s entire rhythm. If you think Virginia is horrible, support your statement.
Suzy UVA went out with the least amount of losses of any team in college basketball
This game was a simple case of outsmarting your opponent. UMBC didn't beat Virginia with athleticism...they beat them with smart playcalling and forcing Virginia out of their comfort zone. UMBC completely deserved and EARNED this win.
they also almost beat Kansas state which was a more physcial team just proves how good that coach is
All they did was either run straight to the basket or shoot open 3's from 3 feet behind the arc
Well Said Real Talk Period.
Andrew Furrer I mean it’s not like duke or unc had athleticism’s that year
Athleticism
Not the only time the Cavaliers are gonna get upset this year 😂
Thomas T not really gonna be an upset unless it's the raptors or something.
in round 1
Eric Harris i just want to see lebr- i mean the cavs in the playoffs. we all know how good he is in the playoffs. with that being said, raps are looking so nice.
Eric Harris he said the cavs will lose in round 1
There's nothing to upset about them this year
Had no idea basketball was this much of a mind game
its all about strategy in most sports, thats why usually a team with all superstars who don't play well together will usually never end up winning. probably like duke this year; they almost lost to ucf, probably won't end up winning
@@wallj8720 u were right
@@TheKabukimono haha yep
Virginia broke down mentally in the second half and gave UMBC easy buckets every time down
American football has crazy strategy and people think football players are dumb
The D'Antoni brothers must be thrilled.
Looooool 5.30 when you say he looks like he's stuck in an NBA 2k game 😂😂
🤣😂
Man like 5:30
this might actually be one of your best videos imo, great job on this, learned alot
Wow, THX!!
the music in description is wrong
profezmo plop
But a significant portion of it was wrong
virginia had an injured player, and was not expected to make it past the sweet 16 after that
the year after once they had him back, they won the championship
8:17 didn't know pewdiepie played for UMBC
Would love to see a video of what made Virginia so successful during the regular season. Or why top acc teams couldn't exploit these weaknesses
This is just my opinion but guys like Coach K and Roy Williams play a different style than these mid major teams. They are not the run and gun team like UMBC. Duke played a lot through the post this year, which UVA feasts on. UNC doesn't have the shooters outside of a couple guys. Ryan Odom is a younger coach who probably wants to play that uptempo style and shoot from outside.
UVa’s biggest weakness would be through their loss of their only true NBA prospect, De’Andre Hunter, to a wrist fracture the game before this. Its safe to say it impacted the team morale and nobody knew how to play together after that.
They weren’t really a scoring team but a defensive team. They would score every so often but they wouldn’t let the other team score. So they’d essentially just beat them with their defense. Starve them of any points. No one knew how to beat their defense at the time. This team had a high ball IQ and figured it out and exposed them and UVA didn’t know what to do. It was just chaos.
Probably paid the NCAA
Andy Gygi I was making a joke r/woooosh
update: I would say Saint Peter's getting to Elite 8 is the new biggest shocker of all time in the tournament
Yep
@Ek nah, Saint Peters making it to elite 8 was because Saint Peters was really good, FDU beat Purdue because Purdue's entire offense runs off Edey kicking out to the perimeter if he can't make the shot himself, and Purdue's perimeter went like 5 of 24 or something horrible like that
u should do this for all upsets and nba playoff upsets
Bon Futur too many this year 😂. But definitely for the Nevada game and the cincy game
Awesome video coach. I think once the result was in the books, many people were wondering whether this blowout was due to a abnormally hot shooting streak or just straight up overconfidence/laziness on the part of virginia. Great to see that it was actually a triumph of modern basketball principles, coaching and execution rather than a lucky win.
kite0impulse I think it was a combination of all three
+kite0impulse I’m biased as a Virginia fan, but I honestly think that one of the biggest factors in this upset has to be the “abnormally hot shooting streak” that you mentioned. UMBC shot 68% in the second half after the game was tied at halftime. Not many opposing teams are going to be able to win when that happens. (Of course, some of the things that UMBC and Virginia did during the game contributed to the great shooting performance - but a large part of it is just that shots were falling.)
brendan95delany 68% is definitely a high percentage but its not necessarily abnormal considering how umbc were consistently getting open, in rhythm shots. Theres definitely some good fortune involved with the number of makes but its not like they were winning off circus shots and contested fadeaway 3s
kite0impulse it was lucky
+kite0impulse Oh, for sure. Virginia’s poor playing very clearly helped UMBC. But imagine if UVA had actually played good (or at least decent) defense. With how well UMBC was shooting to begin with, I’d guess that their second-half shooting percentage would still be around 50%, if not higher. Sometimes, when a team is shooting really well, it just doesn’t matter how the defense plays. To me, this felt like that kind of game - Lyles’ off-balance 3-pointer after the intentional foul towards the end of the game really solidified my point of view.
Though it ruined my bracket, I loved watching this team even though I still can’t remember their name
I just call them the Baltimore County Good Bois
@@darienpitts7193 NotTheExpert?
UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND-BALTIMORE COUNTY, Alex Lewis.......lol
These guys were America's Cinderellas!
UMBC scored just as much in the second half as UVA did the entire game.
Awesome break down and music to go along.
One of the best basketball breakdown/analysis on the internet.
Thanks. Good job 👍🏽
I think this is the most enjoyable video I’ve watched on your channel. I really enjoyed the comparison between the GSW and ORL offenses but this takes the cake. Some great footage too and very understandable analysis as I don’t really know much about plays and D or O. Other than the video the game itself looked like it had come out of a textbook, really nice to see.
4 years later the intro still gives me chills
In this age of hot takes, I appreciate this thorough breakdown of the nuts and bolts of what went wrong for VA. Congrats to UMBC on their historic win.
Put our school on the MAP #SeeOurChessTeam
That's the only reason I had heard of that school previously. It's dominant chess program.
yessssss i go to the umbc basketball camp it is great
damn I didn't know you guys had a great chess team. My school just took home the title #UTRGV

STAND UP
Dunk24 I’m from Harford county, but my dad went to UMBC so we were thrilled to say the least
Hey coach Nick. What a game! Love your hoops knowledge and breakdowns. Of course the music and editing are nice too. 🙂
Wow. I loved the analysis of the slip screens. I never realized how big of a deal slipping a screen can be in the wrong situation and how you could take advantage of that weakness.
Coach its pretty cool how you know the terms of types of offense and defenses as well as a variety of plays. Your basketball knowledge is very impressive.
Thanks!! A lot of study over a lot of years 👍🏀
Excellent breakdown. Great basketball knowledge, making it clear how technique has to constantly change with the times.
The one thing i love more than anything in sports is the mind game. I love pitching and batting so much in baseball because of the mind games the pitcher and batter can play on each other. The art of painting the corners, working the count. It's all a big mind game. I love this breakdown of the mind game in basketball because, even if it's not as complicated as in baseball, it's fascinating and i love it. Amazing video.
Great commentary Bballbreakdown as always! Could you breakdown that Syracuse 2/3 zone. I've never seen anything quite like that. Seems like it's more than a zone. OK thanks
Awesome video, nick, you nailed it... one of your best ever!
Really cool analysis thanks for making this video
YESSS, I was hoping you'd make this vid
Very informative, good job.
Awesome analysis! I went to UVA (100 years ago LOL) during the Ralph Sampson era and, unfortunately, the Hoos have always been basketball underachievers when it comes down to crunch time.
The great thing about life is change is always possible. From one and done last tournament to #1 this time around!!
Incredible video; you’re knowledge of x’s and o’s was awesome here
This game was 4 years ago to the day. Now, we're one day away from the tournament starting, Rutgers is playing Notre Dame in the last First Four game. Virginia failed to make the tournament, Baylor is looking to repeat, and Gonzaga is still trying to get their first.
GO PEACOCKS
This channel is amazing! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Loved the intro
Also I really like UMBC's 5'8 PG
Thanks. I was curious about this game since I didn't watch it.
Nice breakdown Coach! Watched parts of the game; always nice to have someone put into words what the hell was going on.
👍👍🏀🏀
Excellent breakdown man!
I live in Maryland and I watch umbc quite a bit and I met a player back 8 years ago and he really made me happy so this win was awesome!
Might be the best game review of the year. Props BBall
Great job KJ I remember when he was at CF community college! Small world
good job to the UMBC players for executing and their coaching staff for coming up with a sound game plan. and for the opinions you shared, well, you're entitled to them.
Love the vids my boi
👍🏀
So if Virginia's offense is so rote and their defense is so bad, how did they make it to the number 1 seed?!
Spikezx7 Good players?
Spikezx7 Nobody knew how to exploit their defensive. If you look at their games the scores are relatively low. They can’t score but their opponents couldn’t score enough. They just happened to run into a team with high bball IQ. 🤷🏾♂️
Their defense! But I need to look into what they did in regular season since it’s hard to believe they weren’t beat more often
As a UVA fan I'd be very interested in this analysis. Obviously in the video the concepts look dated and foolish, but UVA has won a lot of basketball games the past few years using the same concepts. Can it work? Or does Tony Bennett need to update his system? Thank you!
BBALLBREAKDOWN I'd love to get a mini follow up on what was different. maybe not a full video, but like 3 or 4 minutes explains the differences.
Man,having lived in Virginia my whole life this really was a big upset for me.
Production and music on point
This game kind of reminded me of Florida Gulf Coast-Georgetown in 2013 (Virginia, like Georgetown relied a lot on a slow, physical game to beat opponents but they were forced out of their comfort zone).
That's my alma mater y'all. Thanks, Coach Nick, never could've imagined we would be featured on your channel.
Also 8:06 it's RYAN Odom, I know it was an honest mistake since his Dad was a great coach.
Thanks!! And yes, I’m ashamed
On the day of this game, I told my uncle, when we were filling out our brackets, that a 16 seed had never beaten a 1. Well, you know how that went down...
great vid, coach nick!
Was at this game and UVA did reach a bunch when we started in transition and got a couple of easy baskets that way. You aren't going to beat too many teams when they shoot that well from 3 tho.
ACC teams relied on star power, duke an UNC mainly.
Loved every minute of it
This was the best breakdown video I’ve ever seen.
yeah i noticed the constant screening and how little natural flow the offense had for virginia. It would be a nice offense if they actually had backdoor cuts, curls, slashers- you know, the people that pull defenders away enough so that other players have a window to drive. I'm a little pissed cuz I picked virginia to win the tournament, so my bracket is dead. Too bad, I got the first loyala upset and a few other nice ones too.
Very nice breakdown
Great breakdown.
I just got into basketball and this channel is fucking sick been watching for a couple months learned a lot about the game and some of these defensive principles you discuss can also be applied in soccer ( what I play and watch) which is cool. Thanks coach!
Thanks so much! And one of these days I’ll do a video comparing soccer and basketball
hell yeah dawg big ups!!
Question. Whats the point of allowing middle penetration? I was always taught by coaches force them baseline and use the sideline and baseline as extra defenders... doesnt middle penetration make your defense collapse and leave open shooters or lanes to cut? It seems strange a top college coach is teaching his team to let the offense collapse their defense.
The thinking behind allowing middle is to funnel drivers into a lot of help down in the lane Virginia was really good at helping and then helping the helper with close outs all year to repeat this cycle. UMBC attacked it well by penetrating middle followed by a pass to beat a close out and Virginia ran out of help and extended their defense more and more as UMBC continued to make threes. That's the idea behind Virginia's defense (which still allowed 53 ppg in the ACC and shut down Duke pretty well) and how UMBC was able to make it moot with their middle penetration and corner 3's without help
They try and position the help there but with the spacing that offenses have now you’re just asking to get into foul trouble and/or give up open 3s
im pretty sure coach nicks point about allowing middle penetration is, dont allow middle penetration
James Sarmiento my high school coach’s reasoning(we did force middle on drives) was that basically we relied on help defense to stop drives as opposed to shot blockers(aka force sideline to a shot blocker)
ah I see thank you every body. thank you all for being respectful and informative like normal humans. #ImIn
As a big Arizona fan, I would love break down of Arizona vs Buffalo. Does Sean Miller’s slow paced offense create good looks or should a team that athletic be running in transition?
6:46 Ice a 13pt game with 8 minutes left?!!? Coach, I’m dying! X’D
more college ball breakdowns, please
I've been to the umbc basketball camp and I met a lot of those umbc players. They're actually really good
Great breakdown, Coach. i was thinking those spacing activities for Virginia Cavaliers. they should improve on spacing.
Thanks and YES!!
Hey coach Nick I was wondering if Gardner webb had a chance to beat Virginia as well exploiting this defence
This was a brilliant breakdown of how to attack Virginia's pack line defense. There are teams who play that defensive style, but unlike UVA (who plays the original form stemming from Tony's father Dick Bennett). they make modifications which allows them to have more sustained success.
You should do more NCAA games, Coach. #Salute
Coach, if you read this PLEASE use the music that u used for warriors vs thunder 2016 WCF breakdown videos. Use that music for this year's playoffs and finals bc it goes great with your analysis 👌🏻
OK, cool. And DAMN.. I gotta go back and figure out what it was
Great vid coach
Excellent Video
Incredible breakdown
I am just now seeing this video but we ran the exact same offense at my high school. Although it wasnt really as effective cause most teams didnt play proper defense it still forced them to constantly be moving and changing directions.
I love college football more than anything, but March Madness is my favorite event to watch. I've taken the round of 64 and 32 off for the past 11 years! Never miss it
Flawless video sir
Thanks!
Completely agree on the offense although the blazers have run a lot of blocker mover stuff for dame and cj, defensively I disagree most of what I saw was dont high hedge the ball screen and there is nothing that says you must high hedge in packline. We run packline and have the big in the catch position. On the middle drives I saw no defenders in their gap which does make middle drives killer. And you dont help as in double team on middle drives, its a stunt and recover. Even no middle teams sometimes still give up middle anyways. Virginia has had one of the best 3pt% def since tony has been there. I don't think one loss however great overwrites all of virginias track record with packline.
love the sound
Could you do a dive into UVA over the rest of the season? Because... I'm confused, lol.
This channel is educational B.Ball gold
My high school plays pac line and while it’s good for Lower skilled teams where the 2 pt is the most dominant, it’s not versatile. Our coach’s entire base of the defense is to never allow a baseline drive and push defenders into the middle to be double or triple teamed. While this is effective against low-mid 3pt % teams, it’s becoming more and more useless.
They almost beat Kansas State too!!
Underrated team I watch them vs Kansas State, that offense is damn good. They generated plenty open looks against KSU, but they didn’t fall. Game cane down to 2-3 possessions
I was at this game... absolutely insane time in Charlotte!!
This was an awesome feat and O
oh boy was it LIT but our admissions tripled this year and I HATE IT. THERES NOWHERE TO PARK AT UMBC ANYMORE.
Well done.
can you do a video about Dame Lillard / Trailblazers hot streak?
Awesome video
👍👍🏀🏀
Can you break down the MSU vs Syracuse game as well?
You want me to scream and yell about a team playing 2-3 zone the entire game?? 🤣🏀
Maybe you will do FDU-Purdue. That would be Fairleigh Dickinson of you. 😁
For those asking, I think one of the reasons UVA won during the regular season was because most teams don’t have the personal to get UVA out of their element. The way to beat them is to make the tempo fast and exploit the fact that their bigs are stagnant for many offensive possessions. They weren’t down much at all during the season bc of their D, but when they do get down, it’s hard for them to climb out in a reasonable amount of time. Their D usually likes to suck the life out of the best player on the opposing team. And once that stage is done, they make the game even slower and suffocate your offense/primary ball handler so that you can’t score more than them. Most of their games are relatively low scorings affairs. But here, they couldn’t shut UMBC’s penetration down. And bc they’re a slower team, their rotations never got to shots in time.
great video
At the beginning of the game unless you lived in Maryland nobody knew who umbc was but by the end of the game the whole country were umbc fans and this is what makes this tournament so damn special!
I wish Studio Analysts broke down this game in a similar fashion as opposed to saying""...UVA wasn't used to playing uncomfortable..they never tried to play fast...".
YES
Thank you UMBC! Awesome win!
i like how the bench goes crazy every time they score
we used to run Virginia's offense on my team and I was a big and I wanted to quit not even half way into the season cause I never got touches all I would do was set screens
I was in the same position, but we ran it with a bit of a modification. I had pretty good basketball IQ, so my coach would have me look for an opportunity of isolation for a pop and shoot or to slip and hand off for a drive. It made sense because I was a smaller postman
At some point, specifically halftime, both the players and the coaches at UVA just gotta sit down and reflect. We are 3,4,5 star recruits. We should not lose this game . They should trash whatever game plan they had and HOOP. Props to UMBC for coming with major energy. Baltimore was lit
3:18 as A player who has played in the pack line style the corner gap is trained to never help in that situation the help should’ve been the other big mans with the opposite corner defender taking his man leaving top defender playing two on long kickouts
I watched this game, and I was just waiting for Virginia to burn 'em. I couldn't believe it. GG UMBC.
