I'm proud to say that i was at this game. It was abolutely unbelievable. When Summers threw down that dunk over Robinson, the whole place just erupted. I'll never forget that game. Makes me proud to be a State fan.
That man had some innate athleticism just the fact that found a way in, lol. Probably one of the biggest/best dunks in NCAA tourney history. The only one that probably is the most memorable is the FGCU lob against georgetown, but still, summer’s dunk took way more athleticism and skill to pull off.
Playing Mich. St. in the Final Four in Detroit? Fun. At least Uconn got them back in 2014 at MSG. Still that was nothing compared to playing a road game in front of 70K. Crazy atmosphere.
I'm a UConn fan, so let's get that out of the way, but this was a good game. MSU beat us, they had the answers. They made the big shots and got the big stops. Fair is fair. Michigan State didn't have the answers for the Tar Heels though, and I doubt UConn would have either. That's fine, we got Calhoun one last national title two years later...I won't complain about the way it all worked out!
i think the problem with michigan state the past few years is they don't get players who have loads of confidence and for lack of a better term "swagger". this team and the 2000 team had those things, they had an identity.
No doubt Sparty is up there. One of the most consistent programs last 20 years. My Jayhawks are up there aswell by winning 15 Big XII titles, 5 Final Fours and 1 NC.
bsballerz19 yeah but your Jayhawks cheat and pay their players so MSU and Duke are the only real consistent schools because UK also cheats. I hate duke but they play fair unlike your school

@@Dollar-zb2ik they still lose in detroit they also got booed a lot at least their players cameras especially back then also don't produce accurate enough sounds to judge crowd size
Nothing like telling Kalin Lucas and Durrell Summers they’ll be playing in this game in 2007 while they was in High School still. I had the blessing to train them both while in HS and College. Love this Spartan Team. Great memories ❤😅
so what how do you even know it's just the comments not everyone is gonna talk about him most people didn't even go here for him if anything him being green is more impressive of course he was going to play in college and probably at a high level though he wasn't really seen as the star player he isn't now but he's still good
i was on spring break in fort myers and due to traffic we missed the entire first half. however as we rolled into town all we heard was "Go green" followed by a "Go White." Spartan flags were hung in all the bars and ahh just a fantastic night/experience. thank you guys i get the chills every time i watch this.
Tom Izzo is so freakin' classy. If you watch at 8:14, most coaches probably would have already started walking over to shake Jim Calhoun's hand, but Izzo is chasing Summers down the floor from the sideline making sure that he doesn't showboat or score, a traditionally unsportsmanlike move in that type of situation. Such an awesome coach.
@@davidmilner8778 actually that year Dyson wasn’t even top 3 scorers on UCONN. It went Price, Adrien, Thabeet and then Dyson as far as ppg. I don’t think him being out changed it that much considering MSU put on a clinic on both sides of the ball that game…
@Izzone24 Jerome Dyson averaged 17.2 points per game on that team. When he got injured, AJ. Price became the main scoring guard. He wasn't enough to carry them.
The unnoticed moment of this video....Summers has an uncontested break away to the net with 4 seconds left.....could have been a legendary dunk and just kills the clock. Class move, class program.
The wierd irony of college hoops.. MSU kills us dead in Detroit. We were the better team. In 2014, we bring them to MSG. They are the better team. We make them look silly, UConn vs. MSU injected into our veins. Forever.
If MSU can reach to the Final Four this year, based on all the injuries and begin sick that MSU has been dealing with all year long, it would be quite of a story for Tom Izzo and this year team. I would want to see MSU get to the Final Four to play against Arizona or Syracuse to get past them, and then advance to the National Title for a huge W. GO GREEEN!!!!!!
That dunk by Summers is still one of the sickest dunks I've seen anywhere in any league. Stanley Robinson is 6'9", an athletic freak, and knows how to block shots... And 6'4" Durrell Summers just made him look like an AAU player.
michigan state is one of the best teams in the NCAA but i think that after making the tourneyment like every year for the past 12 years they should get more credit for what they do. This year sparty is going to bring it all home baby!!!
It's actually 3-5 in the Final 4 but your point still remains and as an MSU fan yes I agree UConn has gotten it done more than MSU since 1999 despite MSU having more Final 4 berths during that span. Although it is nice to know we beat you in a Final 4 matchup :)
@bzurvalec I agree 100 % I'm a UK fan but Michigan State is a top 3 program 6 final fours one national title not too mention play in the tough Big Ten year after year. The media won't get their head out of the ACC ass long enough too look at anyone else.
my opinion: best play of the game, better than the dunk. kalin lucas double inside out move at 5:00 on kemba walker. welcome to the final four freshman.
Who's that Final Four loss against? I forgot. Also could you tell me the final score of the game that's in this video? I can't tell if that's MSU that beat UConn
@sjm277545 IF uconn won this game, but they didnt so were clearly the better team. if msu lost i wouldnt feel bad and go look at highlights on youtube, then talk shit. You can say if all you want but you didnt win so get over it
@joalco3 Hes one player and i think he was WAY too inconsistent. One game he would play great, and the other he wouldnt be a factor. Put draymond green in the starting lign to replace him.
Michigan State's National Championship game record: 2-1 Michigan State's Final Four record: 2-6 UConn's National Championship game record: 3-0 UConn's Final Four record: 3-1 When UConn gets to the Four Four they usually get it done...MSU on the other hand is much more unreliable. GO HUSKIES! UConn gets it done
There are no trophies for 2nd place. You won a game in front of 70000 of your fans. And than still got embarassed for the 2nd time that year against UNC. Woopty doo!
dont change the fact that Draymond Green is a bumb....and they still cant keep up the good winning works even with the ol-coach retiring....uconnn is better thatn mistiganstatesppoookes
And in 2009 Phil Jackson was still coaching so to say that Tom Izzo is the greatest coach is over stepping a line when he didn't win a national championship since 2000
who won the game in the final 4 and the person who uploaded the video said greatest coach im talking about not just college but in the world of basketball together, college, nba, and even highschool
I miss you Kalin Lucas!!!!!
Rick Gutkowski the pistons just signed him
I'm proud to say that i was at this game. It was abolutely unbelievable. When Summers threw down that dunk over Robinson, the whole place just erupted. I'll never forget that game. Makes me proud to be a State fan.
5 times uconn has won a championship out of 6 final fours
this is the 1
That Summers dunk gives me chills everytime, check out the whole MSU bench, Im not even a Spartan fan and thats sweet
That man had some innate athleticism just the fact that found a way in, lol. Probably one of the biggest/best dunks in NCAA tourney history.
The only one that probably is the most memorable is the FGCU lob against georgetown, but still, summer’s dunk took way more athleticism and skill to pull off.
It’s even better because everyone who is an MsU fan hates uconn
Playing Mich. St. in the Final Four in Detroit? Fun. At least Uconn got them back in 2014 at MSG. Still that was nothing compared to playing a road game in front of 70K. Crazy atmosphere.
at least? ew
How I miss this group.....
One of the greatest Michigan State games ever! GO STATE!
Those were the days... 70,000 in attendance 👍🏼
Uconn played this game without its top scorer Jerome Dyson.. they win if he plays.
6:43 for the Summers monster dunk over Stanley Robinson ....GO GREEN
Even though MSU just came up short against UNC, they really deserved to play in the Final Four that year.
A great season nonetheless.
I'm a UConn fan, so let's get that out of the way, but this was a good game. MSU beat us, they had the answers. They made the big shots and got the big stops. Fair is fair. Michigan State didn't have the answers for the Tar Heels though, and I doubt UConn would have either.
That's fine, we got Calhoun one last national title two years later...I won't complain about the way it all worked out!
UCONN was missing their number 1 scorer Dyson with an injury. We got Michigan St. back a few times since that time.
Summers’ dunk is my all time favorite MSU bball moment, and this is still my all time fav MSU team.
Only Final 4 loss for my Huskies
i think the problem with michigan state the past few years is they don't get players who have loads of confidence and for lack of a better term "swagger". this team and the 2000 team had those things, they had an identity.
I mean having studs like summers Lucas green cleaves mo Pete bell granger Richardson and playing at home in the final 4 helps ...

so what
how do you even know it's just the comments not everyone is gonna talk about him

of course he was going to play in college and probably at a high level
though he wasn't really seen as the star player
he isn't now but he's still good
