Gators are now one of 3 schools to have a ring in the big 3. When O'Sullivan wins another in baseball Florida will be the only school with multiple titles in each of the 3.
@@malachiclark6810 well the championship game was in 07 but yes more appropriately put both were in the 06 season but basketball has a pretty strong overlap.
They all were sophomores too. That recruiting class wqsnt even top 10 coming in 2004 but left with 2 national championships smh that goes to show u highschool rankings hardly mean anything once first day of freshman year starts
They were all sophomores, roommates, best of friends. Florida is the only team after 1970 to win a title in football🏈 and basketball 🏀. Only team to win a football 🏈 and a basketball 🏀 championships in the same school year. Only team to win with every starter returning. Last team to win back-to-back. Three players had semi-famous sports fathers. Yonnick Noah in tennis, Tito Horford and Sidney Green in basketball.
What the Gators did for those two seasons was legendary winning back to back national titles isn't easy. Noah, green, brewer, and horford what a talented team the gators had
Florida had traveled a LONG journey to get here. Other than a surprise 2000 Final Four, this team had been always known for March pratfalls- Creighton, Manhattan, Temple, blown out on basically their home turf by Michigan State. And some people forget that they were on the wrong end of GONZAGA, THE SLIPPER STILL FITS IN '99. Hell, they had a lead with less than 20 seconds left before a traveling call.
Amazing Since 1970 no NCAA team has won National Championships in Football or Basketball, except....the Florida Gators. The Gators who has won 3 in football and 2 in basketball. The Gators are the only team to win the football and basketball championships in the same year.
I was here 12th row Kareem and Bill Walton were 12 seats beside me. Went to 4 final 4s. FLORIDA back to back. San Antonio Memphis Kansas. New Orleans Anthony Davis year. Florida was the best team I've ever watched Taurean green and Lee Humphrey were so good. Then 3 nba greats
Do you happen to have the highlights of the Florida vs Georgetown and Florida vs Villanova games from that same tournament? Those two games proved The Gators could win a close game in the tournament, especially the Georgetown Game, that one came down to the wire.
You already knew Florida was going to win it all because they eliminated Georgetown and Villanova.That is clutch right there.UCLA fell victim to Florida too.
Where's the full game? I've looked everywhere and i can't find it. I've found the 86 game, and other games from other years but not this one. Could someone help me out?
I thought UCLA was going to win the national championship seeing what they did to Adam Morrison and Gonzaga.I was way off in that game.Its all good because Florida has not one any since those back to back championship seasons.
Love how the gators r one of the few teams to repeat as champs. Also love how the football team and basketball team won in the same year in 07
We didn’t win in 07

@@joshchristian6101 If O'Sullivan wins another baseball title. I'm not holding my breath.

@@malachiclark6810 factually the national championship was played January 8th of 2007 for the 2006 season. We won both championships within 3 months.
Noah, Brewer, Green, and Horford what a combo those four made
is the Taurean Green actually...

And billy donovan as a coach🔥
Don’t forget about Lee Humphrey! Big part of this team!
Steve Spurrier was the rock of Florida Football. Billy Donovan was the rock of Florida Basketball.
Amen!

Remember that all those guys you just mentioned was Sophomores. Humphrey was a Junior. So Noah asked him to stay his Senior Year and run it back.

UCLA had some good players this year too. Jordan Farmar, Ryan Hollins, Darren Collison, Luc Richard Mbah Moute, Aaron Afflalo....

dude this is amazing thank you
Looking back at this game, this was a deep UCLA team
Even watching their practice they were so well coached. BILLY D so underrated
Watching this still makes me smile loved the 04s
Best word to describe this team: Selfless. That's what made them fun to watch.
UCLA fan here. That Florida team was fun to watch that year. They deserved it.
Love when they show the O'Dome at 12:23 - I was there! Man, it was a great time to be a Gator!!
Really great job. Thank you!!
A lot of NBA players in this game
Billy, please, please, come home.

This is quite a crystal clear picture for 2006.....
Is that Ryan Hollins I see?
Billy D put Gator Basketball on the map this was just game that said we were for real
Thanks!
Same... I miss the days where we could win a big game
Lot of solid pros on the court from both sides
Who is John Hamilton ? He’s on the roster for the championship teams but no wiki page and google seems to think he don’t exist 😳
Dunk you very much.
love this team
Okay. I guess those other full games will probably be taken down by youtube soon then.
13:00 the gators 13:01 as good as it gets 13:04 florida's the national champion
We beat them the year after in the final four too lol

Lee Humphrey's free throw form is embarrassing, being that he's such a great 3pt shooter.
Afflalo probably still has nightmares about Corey Brewer
Damn we dunk all night
yea me to but we will be back one year.
The best ever
Now for the Sweet Sixteen in 2014; and again against ucla. Go Gators!!
12:55 LOL

This is as good as it's going to get. If I post the full thing it's copyright. Be happy with what you got lol
Theres no more good games because theres no more talented tens like these two.. So many good journeyman NBAers on both teams.
Uf vs Florida gulf coast
Great team. Green will always be a douche for that dance though.
