- From the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, LA the last two teams standing in the 2012 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament: 2nd seeded Kansas Jayhawks (32-5) vs. the #1 Overall seeded Wildcats from the University of Kentucky (37-2) in it's entirety. Enjoy.

Sporting a fourteen point lead in the NCAA Tournament Final? This team was just head & shoulders above every team. They should, in my opinion, go down as one of the most dominant of all-time. Going 38-2 in todays game was just amazing to watch.
Landon Gardner what about it? We avenged that loss in the Sweet 16.
txtst well being a 1-seed themselves they only had two opportunities to play a fellow 1-seed. In the Final Four & 'Ship.
kyhoopstv Villanova???
Facebook Linked what about them?
IMO, if IU doesn't hit the last second 3, this team goes 40-0. The SEC Tournament Championship meant nothing.
My dad died a few years later in 2015. R.I.P. Dad. Watching this game I knew it might be the last time I would see Kentucky win a national championship with him alive next to me. I remember fighting back tears because of it. Kentucky basketball is not just a team it's a religion down there. To this day as a grown man whenever I see this I can't help but cry tears of joy, and if Kentucky ever wins it all again as a grown man I will cry uncontrollably. Thank you for that moment Kentucky. Thank you for being there always dad. R.I.P. , I'll always love you and god bless Kentucky basketball I will always love you too.
Fantastic video and game! :)
I’m so sorry that your father died
johan fretzen I also watched this game with my dad. Along with the '96 and 98' game. So sorry to hear about your loss, brother. We will get another (or few) with him watching down upon us. God speed, sir and GO CATS!!!!

Amazing memory to have with your dad forever 😊
Kentucky was just so good this year. Took me this long to ever re-watch this game as a KU fan. Congratulations UK, you earned it.
Thanks man, you guys were great. Hate seeing racist and hate comments. Kansas fans are great, good luck to you and your team.
See you at Rupp this year! Hopefully we can at least take you to OT at your place like you did to us last season!
Ty Lightner thanks Ty!
Ty Lightner and now we suck 😭
Good sportsmanship thank you !
I'm a huge KU fan but I knew we were overmatched. KU that year was very lucky to get that far, we overachieved. Congrats UK.
But man...we were so much better in 2010 and 2011 and blew it to UNI and VCU. That's the cruelty of the tournament for you....
Very classy comment....kudos to you sir!!!
seems like people can't take of the home team glasses sometimes and respect when the other team outplayed them.
+kuwinsitall and nova :) muahahaha
uk had anthony davis...thats why they won...period.....defense wins...he didnt let a bad first half and a bad shooting night affect his total impact ....1 for 10 shooting yet he was the most important player...shows his talent....
+FathomHawk so did dook
Hold this L
This Kentucky team was really good!!! Damn near went undefeated! Glad we won the championship.
and my god what a shitty national anthem. i've had more passion shaving my face each morning
lmao
Your right
comment of the year!!!
Who’s watching during the Coronavirus?
Up almost 20 in a National Championship game that's unheard of!!!
Hi, couldn't find the championship game anywhere on youtube but here. Anyways KU fan here, will be looking forward to play you guys in the title game possibly :). You guys were the better team in 2012, but this time the margin of talent between the two teams is much smaller, hopefully it's a great game!!
I remember watching this game from my couch. My gf on my left and my best friend in the right. I can't believe it's been 12 years.
This whole team was fearless. You can just see the confidence they had in themselves and their teammates.
Anthony Davis is greatest all around player in the world !!!! He will go down as the best big man ever in nba history !!!
um,if he cant elevate his team beyond being average, he will just be another talented big man..truely great players make their teams better..Davis really hasnt done that
Robert Anderson calm down buddy
We are Kentucky 2012 champions
Was lol
Josh Capshaw 😂🤣😂🤣😂
So true
And Louisville got boxed out of 2013.
Rewatching in 2020
Just had to update this awsome video. Go Cats!
Remember , everything about Kentucky comes from the University of Kansas! Respect your history!
Vijay Danushkodi , As a lifelong, born and raised Kentucky Wildcat fan, I could maybe go along with your comment if Coach Rupp was the only coach who ever coached at Kentucky that won the national championship. I respect that Coach Rupp "learned" under the late, great Fog Allen, but Fog Allen nor Adolph Rupp really had anything at all to do with the proud Kentucky tradition carried on over the years by coaches Joe B. Hall, Rick Pitino, Tubby Smith, & John Calipari who recruited their own All-Americans and hung their own national championship banners. While Adolph Rupp may certainly have been Kentucky's first great coach, to say the whole history of Kentucky basketball is tied to Kansas and Fog Allen is to say that Joe B. Hall, Rick Pitino, Tubby Smith, & John Calipari weren't capable coaches in their own right, and that my friend is absolutely false.
....yet we have more championships and wins.. Yall might have invented basketball , but we made it better
+allison Brooks who's this we?? Did you play basketball at uk?? NO!!! STFU, pussycat fan!!!
GBeret83 agreed and yes Rupp no doubt it is a legend w his 4 NCAA .. but to tie the other great U.K. coaches after him is Asanine .. but Respect Lansas
What are you talking about Kentucky is #1
I LOVE WATCHING THIS GAME OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN LOL
Im a Kentucky fan; but; Thomas Robinson needs 2 be playing in NBA RN, Man showed heart
I Love the Hassan Whiteside mention - it's nothing new!
11:45 that was the quickest jump ball I ever did see.
AD Still a beast back then
Kentucky were probably top 5 team all-time! But people forget North Carolina also had a heck of a team in 2011-2012. Kendall Marshall, Tyler Zeller, John Henson, James Michael McAdoo, Reggie Bullock and PJ Hairston. Lost in Elite 8 to Kansas i think because half of the team was injured.
And Harrison Barnes...
jonte213 2012 KY team not in the top 50 teams of all time. If they stayed together for a three or four year period, maybe a top 10. Before the one and done era, you had all time great players stay through junior and senior years. Alcindor, Walton, Hayes, Jordan, Manning, Grant Hill, Laettner, Ewing, Olajuwon, Drexler, Worthy. In the 1981- 85 final four here were some of the stars, Patrick Ewing, Akeem Olajuwon, Sam Bowie, Michael Jordan, James Worthy, Clyde Drexler, Rodney McCray, Ralph Sampson, Eric Floyd, Isiah Thomas,

2010 Kansas best team that year and top overall seed but get in the hardest region and Duke gets the weakest region I have ever seen gets cakewalk to Final Four and wins . 2015 Kentucky undefeated overall seed gets Notre Dame who won acc tourney and beat Duke in regular season and had to play Wisconsin in Final Four Duke another cakewalk bracket plays Michigan State in final four haha and beat a tired Wisconsin team . We know NCAA and ESPN love Duke but seriously do you have to make it that obvious . Duke won nothing in regular season and get a one seed I thought if your the # 1 overall seed your suppose to have the easiest road . 2010 Kansas and 2015 Kentucky obviously don't suck espn and ncaa cocks when we win titles we win them they are given to us . Kansas and UK missing two championship banners cause that garbage .
+Jeff Xie they gave puke a cakewalk because of coach K let's be honest here ! the committee is biased when it comes to him just like last year again with puke KY gets the roughest path to the final 4 and puke gets the easiest anyone who says other wise is a damned fool
+Jeff Xie Gee Jeff thanks for the no shit statement of course you got to beat the teams you play but ncaa says if you are # 1 overall seed your suppose to be rewarded Your door bias is in they way last year duke doesn't win acc but reward with # 1 seed over Arizona Notre dame ncaa loves coach k no one bitches about one and dones now he does it
AMEN TO THAT BROTHER
+KY KRaZY duke fans can say their better once they have 8 championships
ALL FACTS
Kansas was just lucky that Kendall Marshall was out for the UNC game
might be true, but that isnt KU's fault...UNC still had enough talent to handle KU....
carsonc29 our backup point guard was out too
Before the title game, Kansas won the previous NCAA tournament match up 88-76 in Chicago (2007 - Round of 32).
this is the best wildcats team of my life time
we will see this again this year GO BIG BLUE
That whole kentucky roster went to the league pretty much.
Kentucky Basketball = Greatness.
Lol not this year
equals money and stupidity like randall
This particular Kansas team was very dependent on Thomas Robinson being dominate on the offensive end to win games, but the length of Kentucky's Anthony Davis & Terrence Jones really stymied and frustrated Robinson for much of this game.
2012 was our year
Kentucky Wildcats our final four contenders
Coach Cal got his revenge for 2008
kentucky was waiting for a long time to win another ncaa title since 1998 when they beat utah in the championship later in 2012 back in the top
That was the Tubby years the dark years as I like to call it.
0:10:12 "Aww shit!"
XD
It's funny everyone over looked mr.smooth stroke Doron Lamb the guy can shoot the lights out funny how Davis wound up in NOLA for his pro career........
Well, Bill Self gets another crack at Kentucky this upcoming season, hosting them and their coach (John Calipari) who started as an assistant at Allen Fieldhouse under Ted Owens and Larry Brown).
Yes sir....that's gonna be a battle!!!!!
Anyone watching this because everything got cancelled?
Yes I already miss how life used to be.
Glad both of these teams are out of the tourney lol... Only blue blood left... UNCheat! Hopefully they go down tonight..
take that L Villanova are champs
MICOLE WHYTE
reading comprehension, dumbass!
Cole Slaw fuck who ever your team is.
+MICOLE WHYTE got your notification and I still can't see your comment.. Lol stupid fucking bitch!!!
Cole Slaw explain how we cheated
Not sure if there will be a different result when both teams meet this November in Indianapolis, unless Kansas gets points off turnovers.
Ugh it's like 2012 all over again..RCJH
Lyu
That made no sense whatsoever.
Now Kansas has passed Kentucky for all-time wins
@J ay at least they didn’t lose as a 2 seed to a 15 seed after getting hyped up to make the Final Four 🤣😂
@J ay Bill Self > John Calipari
That Kentucky team was pretty nasty that year.
True
King Slam-23 FAXXX .. we coming again this year ! Let's go BBN
Robert Lind ha Kentucky #1
While Kentucky was the superior team, i think Kansas focused too much on defending Anthony Davis, because even if he didn't have a good shooting night, he was gonna pile his rebounding numbers, as well as blocks (6, had 7 in the early matchup against KU). Second of all, trying to limit Davis and Jones offensively opened up opportunities for the others.
Nice flashes 5:54 - 6:10. Two in a row? Probably why those first three names were all future NBA contracts and why they won the national title thanks to help from above! *nudge nudge*
Cal sorry half court off must have super stars to compensate for no sScheme
Danny Manning was coaching. KU probably wished he could still play.
Wtf happened to MKG form once he got ti the NBA? He did not shoot that bad at first.
I'm not just saying this because I bleed blue but if Kentucky doesn't win the title this year I won't know what to do with myself
Ehm...
it was just last year.....
who is the commentator?
Jim Nantz, who for the most part always seems to cover just about every game involving Kentucky in the NCAA tournament since 2011.
Michael Stallworth thx a lot! :)
Yo even doe this joint was in 2012 but it was still was sweet they beat Kansas causes they be so overrated and until today them suckers is still overrated and this is 2020 and that's crazy You Feel Me.....
BBN
Kentucky is going to beat every one by at least 15 this year
God that travel call was TERRIBLE. In a national championship game? Really? Kentucky still woulda won most likely but the last 20 seconds shoulda been more fun.
Anyone here in 2018
he wasnt even in kansas in this year
LOL 25:20 5 players on MKG still finished.
Goodness, I am sooooo sorry....lol.
yeah , well that aint THIS YEAR
Anthony Davis is the only one that's a star in the nba everyone else fell off!!
Terrence Jones has looked great. If MKG finally fixes that jumpshot, he'll be a very good NBA player, too.
lillard too
Kentucky Wildcats is the Greatest college basketball team of all time just ask the kansa player they will let a nigga know and the best Kentucky champion win of all time just cause they beat Louisville first
LMAO ikr
That has to be one of the worst anthem performances.
Rewatching in 2020 because of that corona •_•
Kentucky IS HELL stay safe my fellow Wildcat!
Rewatching a bunch of games, too. Miss watching the Cats playing through March. Everyone stay safe!
Bruh same tho
Who's still watching in 2019-20
Dr. Doofenshmirtz 🙋♂️
@@kyhoopstv I really loved the espn all access of kentucky after we won the championship that video was good.
This girl!
No matter how boring the NBA gets, the greatness of march madness remains constant
Even though the only real upset shocker to win it all in the last 30 years was Villanova over north Carolina as an 8th seed...and even then really the Maryland and Arkansas Michigan runs are the closest thing to shockers and even those were predictable ...ncaa and nba always ends with a favorite winning it all
Barnes rules even though he couldn't get along with his staff at Texas Love ya Kevin
going to another one!!!!!!@! Hook em horns
TR18NJ white
And now it's cancelled :(
One of the happiest moments of my life was watching UK win this game. I remember it like it was yesterday. Lexington Kentucky went wild that night.
The absolute worst rendition of the National Anthem I have EVER heard.
What the fuck were they thinking?
seriously, I like their music, but that was disgraceful.
Lmao yeah that was awful.
Fergie just gave me her beer and said "oh yeah, listen to this"
true chris failed law
The greatest night of my young life! I was merely weeks into my Air Force career, fresh out of Basic Training by a week staying up past curfew risking getting in trouble watching this game in the dayroom of the dormitories of Keesler AFB, Mississippi. They were going to have to drag me out dead to get away from the TV that night. UK's previous National Title was in 1998, hadn't even started school yet and would not until August of that year.
huge Kentucky fan born in live in KY i remember watchin it live
Lol you guys are shit right now
+Itz ExamplZ See....now If I could have EVERYONE'S attention please!!!!! Here's a prime example of my point I made earlier in this post....this fella I'm replying to says we (UK) are shit right now....and the FACT that he is an obvious hater of BBN just proves my point that no matter how well or poorly we (UK) is playing even haters have become use to the idea of us kicking everyone's asses and that UK IS INDEED the team EVERY other team wants to beat year in , year out....thanks so so so very much for validating the point we true blue fans already know!!!!!
I live in Louisville
Tristan Darland Kentucky fans are obnoxious
Tristan Darland same
Kansas fan, really can't say much here. 2012 Kentucky was one of the best teams in recent memory. We made a heck of a run though
Kentucky Fan here. Hats off to you and your Kansas Jayhawks. What a game that was (even though it's coming up on two years since it was played) Sorry to see you guys go out early in the tournament. Best of luck next year!
Ya it was a fun run. It was special because that Kansas team wasn't expected to make that much noise in the tournament. Including the dramatic games (Purdue, NCState, and Ohio St) gave me a heart attack. I was pleased how KU cameback from 17 down to make it a game late.
Yes the early tournament loss hurt. But we weren't consistent all year. Embiid and Wiggins were only consistent scorers. And if you don't have a PG. You will die in the tournament.
I was very impressed and surprised 2014 Kentucky is still standing. You guys have really put it together at a crucial time. Hope to see you finish the run the best you can. (Florida is unreal this year.)
2 years late, but I love reading your guys's comments. Kansas fans are the best fans I've ever seen, you guys don't trash talk and claim the other team cheated when you lose, you congratulate them, and every game should be like that. Good luck to you guys this year.
Yeah thank you. Kansas fans are special type of fans. But that same support KU shows, Kentucky, UNC, Duke and all the blue bloods show also. I hope Kansas can make it back to Final Four. They have so much talent returning.
I had the extreme pleasure of being the only Kentucky fan in Lawrence ks during this game...the tears were sooo sweet
after reading all the comments as a Kentucky fan here, Kansas fan's are classy as they come, after uk beat them, they never trash talked about us or our basketball team unlike most other schools! can't wait for basketball to start up here n a few days, it's gonna be a great season for college hoops, go big blue!!!!!
that 2012 KU team was Selfs best coaching job..that team was made up of back ups,walk-ons, raw unpolished players and guys that wouldnt see the floor on most KU squads..I didnt expect them to beat UNC even without Marshall..and watching that Ohio state game, I couldnt tell you how they managed to win that game...this team should have won about 23 games, gotten a 6 seed and been out by the sweet 16....they were severely over matched in this game..the fact that they even made it as close as it was was a miracle
I respect Kansas the most of the blue blood schools honestly duke and North Carolina such toxic fan bases clearly have an Inside deal with the NCAA to hook em up with these undeserved nattys
“The Kentucky coronation is complete champions 2012” goosebumps every time
The question is how soon will we get another one. I am tired of not just the inability of winning the Natty. But we havent made the final four since 2015 despite having all the talent in the world.
City of Champions well, not this year
I was there, it was a magical night.
We gonna get it 2019 go catss
Goose Guy let’s go!!
Bougie Fit 😭😭😭
Evansville & Utah ... wtf
@@kyhoopstv and ohio state
Kansas fans should be proud, I'm a Kentucky fan and I'm not stupid. I know Kentucky's Program got started because of Kansas Alum Adolph Rupp.
Kentucky basketball is like the United States, we're the best there is and everyone else is jealous because they aren't us.
Nah Kansas was the birthplace of basketball
+David Sack Springfield Massachusetts you mean?
That's where the first game was played but the birthplace of the game is in Kansas
What I'm saying is every basketball program came from the university of kansas
+David Sack Kansas made the game but Kentucky perfected it
Ifn the age rule was the same as in the NFL where you must be 21 KENTUCKY would damn near unstoppable....
***** Yea,they would still come to UK because THATS where they stand the best chance to move to the next level and players such as Davis would buy into the platoon system. Either way I wish we could find out!!!!
+Andrew Ross Patrick Patterson would've graduated by the time Anthony Davis went to Kentucky
You don't know that. He wanted to play for Calipari, the coach who just happened to have the skill to improve Davis' weaknesses and lead him to winning POY.
2 flaws in your logic
1) if they had to stay 4 years most of these kids would go elsewhere..they never go to UK..Cal has done a good job and all, but most of the NBA draft ISNT made up of UK players and most NBA players didnt go to UK..Anthony Davis wouldnt have gone to UK if he had t sit behind Cousins..UK isnt the only program that gets guys to the NBA
2) the age rule also helps KU, DUKE, UNC, AZ and other programs as well..it wouldnt just be UK and everyone else
KY KRaZY Lol but then nobody would go to Kentucky
DIE HARD UK FAN 4 LIFE UK 2ND BEST TEAN OF ALL TIME STATISICLY
+Alex Rhodes Oh lord not another grammar Nazi , it is the internet you ass people hardly ever spell things right get over it !
Alex Rhodes I've not gone to college yet. Im only in High school. Judging by your attitude i can clarify you are 99.99% Douche bag
+X Fision Alex Rhodes doesn't need a lifetime.
X Fision maybe top 5
nope number 2 right behind ucla
love seeing our CATS win it all in '12 looking forward to winning it in '16 good luck to Kansas this year as well
My aunt died the year before they won it all rip Edna marie Garrett
Lmao seeing the crying in the girls eyes at the end made me laught😂😂 Kentucky will always be the greatest ncaa team
I never get tired of watching this championship. Go Cats!!!
BBN
that star spangled banner was awful
yeah the together at right go ahead
I think this was the best college ball team ever well top 5 at least
True dat
Yeah, they were a remarkable team; all kinds of offensive weapons, #1 defense in the nation, and POY. All they were missing really was a little deeper bench.
Thot Quin I am a Kansas fan first but I do like Kentucky right behind them this Kentucky team was fantastic
I think the Florida team that went back to back in '06 and '07 may have been better. That frontcourt of Brewer, Horford, and Noah was nasty.
The 81-82 Carolina team was a far better team.
Even doe this joint is old but I still love it how Kentucky beat Kansas and this is 2020 and Kansas is still overrated like they are the shit
Wow I like the frey but they should be shot after that athem.
rolandscaffloc i know, right!
I've had dyslexia all my life, so thanks for calling me challenged. Appreciate it.
Bring it home Kentucky Wildcats
UK great program, KU obviously great program also, i respect UK. UK get ready to face a team with all americans this time and not the least talented in Self's 10 year tenure. Rock Chalk!!!!!!!! Hopefully different outcome.
An Anthony Davis ad came on before the video started
Wonder who Kentucky will make cry in the championship game this season :)
1:35:50 That's almost the exact same play Kansas ran against Memphis to send it to overtime. Except the shot missed this time
Very Weak Performance of the Stars and stripes.
