I love hearing that single scream of worry when KU almost lost the ball and then hearing the loud roars of the crowd after Chalmers made that shot I would've loved to have been at either Allen field house or the actual game. Rock Chalk Jayhawk.
As a true blue Memphis fan, I remember watching this game when I was 13 years old and it truly broke my heart, even to this day. However, I've come to accept the loss and give props to Kansas and their fanbase for an incredible overall ball game and championship. Clearly it was a matchup between the two best teams in basketball that year. Congrats to the 07 and 08 Jayhawks and 21 22 team as well. Go Tigers Go
I was at a KU bar in Washington DC with about 300 other Jayhawks. The place erupted with such noise...was unforgettable. Awesome to see the view from Allen too!
I've watched this at least 5 times a day over the last week! I plan on watching this every morning until we get the next basketball season started so we can DO IT AGAIN!
Well I gotta tell you I was in the front row at Kemper in 1988 for Danny and the Miracles - my senior year at KU. I was at the Final Four in 2002 and 2003. Couldn't go to this Final Four but saw them play in person in Omaha. Thank you Mario Chalmers and the rest of the Jayhawks!!! And thank you UA-cam for letting me relive this a couple dozen times a day!!!! Rock Chalk Jayhawk!!!!
That scream by the girl when Collins takes a stumble followed by Mario's incredible shot and the crowd exploding, then collectively taking a breath as Memphis takes the final shot and then erupting again as the clock runs out. Awesome.
Not only is this moment unforgettable, but my best friend from law school is in the video at the end. I watch this and I weep. The comments from fans of other schools are remarkable - you can't deny the impact of this video.
This gave me chills... I spilled so much stuff jumping around when Chalmers hit the shot because you knew that Kansas would win in overtime. Plus in this March Madness I had Kansas vs. Memphis in the championship game with Kansas winning it all. Damn...
I remember sitting in my apartment in Lawrence with my two roommates. We were having a nervous breakdown. When he made that shot, we went so crazy the downstairs neighbors called the cops on us. It was glorious.
2022...National Championship...KU down 15 at halftime ...Bill Self asked his Kansas team if they would rather be down 15 with 20 minutes to play or to be down 9 with 2 min to play...referring to this 2008 championship comeback win...the team said they take the 15...and they proved themselves just as worthy by winning the 2022 national championship and overcoming the greatest deficit in a national game... Rock Chalk Jayhawk
I've watched the shot a million times in the last few weeks, but this is a truly unique vantage point. Definitely adds a little something to what was already an outlandish way to end 20 years of frustration. I especially like the second wave of cheers after the Memphis 3 missed. Bedlam.
What a moment. Lawrence went insane when his shot went in. The entire town was screaming -- you could literally hear the white noise roar from all directions. Rock Chalk Jayhawk!
It's like opening up the chest of college basketball and looking at it's heart. Damn, watching that game in the Phog must have been one of those moments you remember forever. I even heard my neighbors screaming from where I was.
Truly nice footage. It's as if you knew that shot was going to happen! Thank you for posting. I was at the game, 6 rows up across from the Memphis bench, but after watching this, it makes me wish I were in the Fieldhouse! Thank you. Rock Chalk.
now thats school spirit! watching they're Jayhawks inside of Allen Fieldhouse on national TV. well the fans were supporting they're team no matter where it was at.
I was there. No audio device can record how loud it was in there. After Chalmers hit that shot, my roommate hugged me so hard that I strained my left pectorial muscle. It still hurts today. I don't care. Being at Allen Fieldhouse for that game was simply amazing. I got to kiss centercourt after we all rushed it. Best time of my life.
i was at a bar in DC with about 200 KU fans/alums. our reaction was loud and wild and unforgettably loud. but man.....this video gives me freaking CHILLS! so amazing.
I almost started crying from joy at work when watching this...I wish I could have been back in Kansas Thanks for the video- although I sorta feel bad that you had to watch that shot through your camera
god bless those jayhawks. thank you mario chalmers for giving me one of the greatest moments of my life..... i think eveyrone in the country knew that when we made that shot, we were definitely winning the game in OT.... ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK BABYYYYY!
just imagined how mario felt man... all the fans lovin him for that shot. i betcha when mario is in a bad mood he comes to youtube and watches vids of him hittin that shot to put him in a good mood lollol
I was at home ...losing my mind but trying to stay quiet for my sleeping 2.5 year old and 1 year old! Fast Forward 14 years... My boys and I watching KU win title in 2022! Amazing!
OH MA GOSH! A humble Memphis fan, First one i've met since the win. Thanks for not being a sore loser, and I won't rub it in. Quite frankly I turned the game off with 2 minutes left cuz i was so pissed. turned it on and we were on the line putting it within 4. great game and I thought memphis had it...
i was at a house party for the game and when super mario made that shot the whole neighborhood went crazy...this video gives me the same feeling as when he did make that shot (and it also makes me feel like I should've watched the game there instead of at a house party) ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK
im from NJ, i never really cared for Kansas, but that year i had picked them in the bracket to beat Memphis 74-69. They won me $500 dollars. Ever since that night, Kansas has been my favorite college basketball team in the land, and when Mario hit that shot OMG i didn't know what to do
I did the exact same thing. What even made it better was the fact that you could tell the announcers were routing for memphis, always talking about what a great team memphis is and how far they have come, and then they got beaked haha.........ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK
You know, the best part of this video isn't the crowd screaming when Chalmers hit his shot, but rather the collective gasp as Dozier threw up his prayer. It's crazy to listen to.
I find it amazing that the person filming this was able to continue filming and wasn't going crazy with joy like everyone else!
I love hearing that single scream of worry when KU almost lost the ball and then hearing the loud roars of the crowd after Chalmers made that shot I would've loved to have been at either Allen field house or the actual game. Rock Chalk Jayhawk.

And I wish your Tigers nothing but the best. You have a real good heart. To your success.
UNC and Kansas were the two best teams that year not Memphis lol
I'm a Longhorn fan and hearing that crowd react gives me goosebumps! Hell of a game and glad to see the Championship go to a Big 12 school.
seeing this makes me proud to be a Jayhawk.
Even K-State and Mizzou fans get the chills watching this!
I was at a KU bar in Washington DC with about 300 other Jayhawks. The place erupted with such noise...was unforgettable. Awesome to see the view from Allen too!
I was at Champps sports bar during this time
Here to relive this before the 2022 Championship. ROCK CHALK.
CHILLS!! I was 10 years old watching this in Gardner, KS with my dad. Still my favorite Jayhawk moment.
I've watched this at least 5 times a day over the last week! I plan on watching this every morning until we get the next basketball season started so we can DO IT AGAIN!
Not only that, but every time I watch this, no matter where it is being watched, or what angle we see it from...I ALWAYS get chills...
EVERYTIME I watch it, I get chills and I was there...it's just freakin' amazing...
No matter how many times you watch this i still get chills Lets do it again next year guys

I was there that night.... The ringing in my ear from the crowd at that shot didn't go away for hours lol. But it was worth it I'll tell ya
I was 10 when this happened...I remember bawling about losing the game and then being utterelly speechless when he hit the shot...still get chills
I LOVE THIS VIDEO. There's only one Allen Fieldhouse.
It will never get old... ever. I'll always remember that moment.
those 2 deafening roars are what makes AFH & KU the place to be!
Not only is this moment unforgettable, but my best friend from law school is in the video at the end. I watch this and I weep. The comments from fans of other schools are remarkable - you can't deny the impact of this video.
i've watched this video like 30 times and it never gets old
It was such an amazing and unforgettable moment. I don't think i'll ever forget that night at the Phog.
Your daily dose of goosebumps.
#RCJH #neverfails #champs
+somecallmetim46 You hit the nail on the head. Still get goosebumps watching this!
I still remember watching it live at Wayne & Larry's. I still get chills. Best moment of my life.
Goosebumps every time I watch this. Craziest night of my life thus far.
And KU won again in 2022! It was a close one, too.
One of the great shots in decades. And the dish to Chalmers was spectacular.
I have too watch this every week ,, can't get enough of it
i dont think i will ever stop watching this video...... until next season starts, ill be watching this every day....
This gave me chills... I spilled so much stuff jumping around when Chalmers hit the shot because you knew that Kansas would win in overtime. Plus in this March Madness I had Kansas vs. Memphis in the championship game with Kansas winning it all. Damn...
I'm from Maine and I think this is the best video on UA-cam. Love the audio when he hits the shot. Pure euphoria.
This video captures pure unbridled human joy better than almost anything I've ever seen. Thanks for having the composure to film.
I remember sitting in my apartment in Lawrence with my two roommates. We were having a nervous breakdown. When he made that shot, we went so crazy the downstairs neighbors called the cops on us. It was glorious.
i could watch this video all day
pure classic man.. thanks for this video. i must say this should be nominated as video of the year. it captures pure historic raw emotion!!
2022...National Championship...KU down 15 at halftime ...Bill Self asked his Kansas team if they would rather be down 15 with 20 minutes to play or to be down 9 with 2 min to play...referring to this 2008 championship comeback win...the team said they take the 15...and they proved themselves just as worthy by winning the 2022 national championship and overcoming the greatest deficit in a national game...
Rock Chalk Jayhawk
still one of my favorite youtube videos!
I've watched the shot a million times in the last few weeks, but this is a truly unique vantage point. Definitely adds a little something to what was already an outlandish way to end 20 years of frustration. I especially like the second wave of cheers after the Memphis 3 missed. Bedlam.
I was with about 250 other KU alumni in Washington D.C. watching this game. I can tell you we reacted exactly the same....it was absolute euphoria.
i can't believe you were able to capture that. freaking AMAZING.
I'm not even a Kansas fan, but I still watch this video every time I need a bit of a pick me up.
Amazing game.
What a moment. Lawrence went insane when his shot went in. The entire town was screaming -- you could literally hear the white noise roar from all directions.
Rock Chalk Jayhawk!
Thanks for all the kind comments. When I got that footage, I was sure it was going to be a hit!
It's like opening up the chest of college basketball and looking at it's heart. Damn, watching that game in the Phog must have been one of those moments you remember forever. I even heard my neighbors screaming from where I was.
I was there and it was AMAZING... rewatching this makes me smile!
I'm a diehard Texas Longhorn fan but every time I watch this video I get chills.
I thought I was the only one that watches this everyday...greatest moment in sports history in my mind!
Just teared up a bit all these years later. Best night in Larryville ever!
Truly nice footage. It's as if you knew that shot was going to happen! Thank you for posting. I was at the game, 6 rows up across from the Memphis bench, but after watching this, it makes me wish I were in the Fieldhouse! Thank you. Rock Chalk.

AWESOME. I commend you on being able to hold a camera in that situation. I was pulling my hair out at the time. Thanks for sharing!
One of the greatest college bball games ever, that shot is going down in history. Simmons.
Pretty tight. as a hoosier fan, love seeing any time with a rich heritage and tradition be rewarded for a dedicated fan base. Kudos.
This is an incredible video!
Holy shit...that must have been absolutely insane there...
Even though only about 10,000 people were there, it was the loudest Allen Field House has ever been.
i was at a house party for the game and when super mario made that shot the whole neighborhood went crazy...this video gives me the same feeling as when he did make that shot (and it also makes me feel like I should've watched the game there instead of at a house party)
ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK
goosebumps and tears...what a great moment
My aunt and cousin were there and they said it was the loudest they'd ever heard the Fieldhouse even though it was only half full.
5 yrs later still getting chills maybe we could get Ben's or Elijah's miracles this yr... rock chalk
how are the cameraman's hands so still after mario's miracle? That's impressive work my friend.
This gives me so many chills
that was amazing and awesome and some more amazing.
Chills every time bro
im from NJ, i never really cared for Kansas, but that year i had picked them in the bracket to beat Memphis 74-69. They won me $500 dollars. Ever since that night, Kansas has been my favorite college basketball team in the land, and when Mario hit that shot OMG i didn't know what to do
I did the exact same thing. What even made it better was the fact that you could tell the announcers were routing for memphis, always talking about what a great team memphis is and how far they have come, and then they got beaked haha.........ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK
I was there, still the loudest ive ever heard a stadium and I was at the Minneapolis Miracle game.
this is so cool to hear and see even in 2022 WHEN WE WON ANOTHER ONE
This video deserves the Pulitzer Prize. Absolutely surreal.
It's so loud, you'd think they were actually there at the game. Jayhawk fans are the best. ROCK CHALK!
we were all at old chicago this night was by far the best night i have had in lawrence in a long LONG TIME!!!
Never gets old!
i get chills everytime, i was behind to the band too
what a fun crowd reaction!!!
I'm DEFINITELY not a KU fan, but this video is awesome and it must have been GREAT being there! :-)
You know, the best part of this video isn't the crowd screaming when Chalmers hit his shot, but rather the collective gasp as Dozier threw up his prayer. It's crazy to listen to.
