That was definitely a lesson for me! We were at that game. And we looked at each other and we knew it was over. A friend turned around to talk to some Tennessee fans. He only got "Congrat" out Tennessee fan interrupted with, "OH SH.." 😅 What a game!
Yeah that would have to at the top of the list of soul snatching 😂 as we say down south bless her heart ❤️❤️❤️❤️ AN GO GAMECOCKS TENNESSEE AWESOME COMEBACK. AN RIKIA JACKSON great leader when she helped her teammate that was crying up at end of game. picked up an held on to her as they walked to the locker room class act
@GeneTurner-gg4yo exactly!!!! Did yall hear the dumb Tennessee fans in the stands who were singing "We Will Rock You" ???? Scratching my head on that 1.
Coach Staley called the perfect play in this situation - her best 3-point shooters (minus Tessa) on the perimeter, Watkins down low, and the unsuspecting hero at the top. This forced players to stay locked on their individual opponent, allowing Cardoso to step out for the uncontested 3! NICE!!! This is superior basketball IQ on full display! A little luck never hurts...❤
...and credit to Coach Lisa Boyle who worked with Cardosa on that very shot! "A stroke of coaching genius" - shows why Coach Dawn is the #1 college coach of 2024!!!
Tennessee said here hold this W we don't want it.... missed 2 freethrows, then said you know what we want you to take a nice jumper instead of a half court prayer, let me foul you so you can set up. And these stupid announcers called that smart?!😂
Kamilla is 6'7". Even if a player tried to block her she was tall enough that she might have been able to shoot over the defender's head and still make the shot.
The shot that save the day for SC and leading to NCAA National tournament final Win and undefeated season of 0 to 38W. Who does that? A. FAVOR, The SC Lady Gamecock Champions & University of SC brilliant, but humble head basketball coach Dawn Staley 🐓🏆 ❤️🖤☝🏽
The coach always tells you, the game is not over until the whistle blows. Those Tennessee players were standing around not paying attention to the final inbound, and NO ONE was guarding Cardoso. They didn't even give her that respect because she's not a long range shooter (that was her first and only 3 pointer), and their hubris cost them the game. GO SC!!!!
its's got to be the best last 2 minutes of any game...Love that announcer's voice... love how Jackson took care of her team mate after loosing, it says 100% about her character.
Tennessee had south carolina by the balls and just choked. This has to be the play of the year for women's college basketball. This saved a perfect season.
Nah, they had 2 fouls to give so that was a smart play taking it. Just like if someone were guarding Cardoso, they could have taken another one just to kill the time. The missed free throws and the bad cover at the end cost them the game, Cardoso shouldn't have been left wide opened like that because it was 5 against 4 and 2 of Tennessee players were caught in no man's land not guarding anyone and you can't win like that.
@@ndjibukabengele973Not smart at all if she makes the half court shot she makes it but giving them essentially a timeout was super low IQ and now justification for it
@@everettyoung6596 no she was acting like not choking , nervous at free throw line that's why she missed the couldn't handle the situation SHAQ did this all the time
@ndjibukabengele973 hello I played basketball and coached basketball that was one of the dumbest fouls i have ever seen and I don't care if they had fouls to give...that girl was launching an improbable over half court shot..let her shoot the ball and the games over ..TENNESSEE WINS
With 3,7 sec left Rickea Jackson's mom was celebrating like the game was over. I'm glad they didn't show her face after that shot. I can't imagine the range of emotions .
I kinda wanted to see it you never supposed to celebrate until the game is over or at least you have the ball in your possession so the clock would have just ran out
They gave that game away! When pow pow miss her shout, they 3 .7 seconds on the clock. Instead Tennessee player try too run the clock out. She just stand there an let SC foul her! Then she didn't take her time at the free-throw. She just threw the ball, then last Tennessee just let SC center left her by herself! Bad coaching, their team is just that dumb! That was just plain stupid! Tennessee just gave that game away! I mean if you look at the last play. Tennessee players look lost! As they didn't know what to do. It's just crazy!
Hopefully she want be there to much longer! She has sucked pretty good up to this point! Harper would probably do better at another mid major program ! Do not feel sorry for her she sucked about 6 million from UT the last 5 years
Exactly...we appreciate the Tennessee player who missed both free throws .... (in my mean Assist. Tenn. coach voice: everybody line up for suicides lol)
That game was one of if not the best of the entire season. That shot was one of the most incredible in NCAA history but the journalists would give more attention to the LSU/SC game that involved a dustup...
Great clutch shot by Kamilla. Coach Staley flew in her mom and sister from Brazil last week for senior night so they got to see this in person so that was very special for Kamilla to have won the game like that. Tennessee played a great game. They came back from being down by 23 points. The Gamecocks played very sloppy the 2nd half and very sloppy against A&M the first half. Let's hope they got all of their sloppy playing out of their system because LSU will come at them hard tomorrow and they'd better be ready! Go Gamecocks!!
I've never seen a most impressive and most valuable 3-pointer like that, with 1.1sec left, by somebody who had never made a 3-pointer in her career....woow!!🤯😳
I can watch this on repeat!!! What a moment, holy smokes!!! The only thing better are the clips of Dawn running around afterwards like she at church 🤣😭 Love Kamillas reaction too! She just jumped up and down like a happy af kid!
Literally the best moment in all of the 2023-24 season. A player known for her defense, and never having made a three point shot in a game, launches a shot from 3-point range which banks in the basket. Only Coach Staley could see this before it happened. Faith said, "50-50 CHANCE," Coach said, "I love those odds."
...and yet you've got Gamecocks Fans bent outta shape because of how Coach Staley answered a gotcha question from a political hack. I'll tell you what, the moment that Coach Staley steps away from this post, USC won't come within driving distance of this kind of success ever again. LUCKY TO HAVE SUCH AN ACCOMPLISHED COACH AND HER STAFF!
GREAT FINISH!❤ After all of these years of watching Lady Gamecocks Basketball, watching this video in slow motion was my first time noticing that South Carolina uniforms have the names “under” the numbers! SMART! 😂
This game is a game changer of coaching n players as one to win this game in historic fashion. Seeing back then n now today 22 April’s 2024 is just like that day wow . One for da ages congrats to the SC CENTER CAMILLA N ANGEL REESE TEAMING UP TO PLAY IN DRAFT DAY WNBA SKY TEAM NOW WOW
WOW what a game! Talk about a nail -biter! Tennessee thought they had it. In the end though, Captain Gamecock, aka Kamilla Cardoso, saved the DAY!!!!!!
That shot had to Sting Tennessee but it was meant to be for SC. It was unbelievable her 1st 3 pointer, was the winning shot WOW meant to be. NOBODY CAN EXPLAIN IT
Omg I watched this like 1,000 times!!
Me too😂
It's too great for too good
ME TOO!!!!

This is one of the greatest moments in basketball history!

That shot sent every Tennessee player's soul into another dimension in the universe
and the coach. I literally felt her heart sink.
Let that be a lesson never stop playing and they stopped playing on the last play! Dumb! Just hit the damn free throws and the game is over

This will forever be history
This is how Dawn earned them big bucks. She didn’t lose her cool with seconds left and she coached her team to victory.
She seems to lose it and make the ugliest faces imaginable when the team is up by 20 points .... Go figure. 😂
No coaching by Tennessee won the game for SC not Dawn.
💯💯

And now they are NCAA champs 🏆
Go gamecocks
never stop the clock
Lesson learned, never leave any player that wide open no matter what!!
Exactly. Preach to em
Blown assignment
@@whatthehell4896Look at the play. No assignment they planned to leave her open defenders just stood in the paint and waived their arms.

I'm old I saw7'6" Manute Bol make a three one time ,that what im reminded of here
Dawn is the best WBB coach for a reason. She is cool and level headed. SC is the best team out there.
We love our gamecocks
This aged well. Go SC.
🐓❤️🎉
The 3-pointer that will be seen around the world! Go Cordoso! Go Gamecocks!
They suck ass Tennessee should have whooped them
My most memorable moment ever in sports at a live event. Period.

Just because a player don't do it in the game doesn't mean they don't practice it throughout the yr. She don't do it because she don't have to.
Riker tried to tell her Coach to play D on the players!

By the balls, When and what quarter was this, oh you woke up 😅😅😅
This was a beautiful moment. I can’t stop crying every time I watch it. Congrats to the gamecocks - Dawn, you are legendary!
@11:45 You could feel that moment when Kellie Harper's entire coaching career flashed before her eyes.
The emotions of college basketball, priceless.
This was a game for the ages Dawn is so cool she never panic. So Caroline recruits no that you will be playing for a special coach.
I keep watching this over and over. Love it!
This crowd was INSANE!

Now this is what FAITH in your team looks like.
SC deserved and earned the championship
Way to go South Carolina!!! Heartbroken for Tennessee. What a game!!
LOVE Courtney Lyle's excitement in the 3 pointer by Cardoso...I never tire of hearing this
SC needed that scare. I believe it helped them the rest of way to the National Championship(38-0).
I would have love to be in that arena to watch this epic showdown
Nope I would have been hinting….i just can’t bare it…
I was there, and I will never forget this game. We knew it was over. And then, Cardoso drained that 3! Pandemonium! 🎉
With 3,7 sec left Rickea Jackson's mom was celebrating like the game was over. I'm glad they didn't show her face after that shot. I can't imagine the range of emotions .
That’s Tamari Key’s mom at 3.7 seconds left. Rickea’s mom is at 24.5 seconds

Yea I’m hear watching it again for the 500 time.
Me too!
The thrill of victory & the agony of defeat
I can watch this over and over and over!!!! Helluva shot!!! Helluva team! Helluva Coach! Well earned 'Ship GameCocks 🏆
Respect Cardoso!!!!!
Forget giving up the 3, Cardosa started well within the line and still no one came out to guard her. Crazy bad decisions.
U know she tried to miss right ? 😂😂😂
@@tahubbe1 that makes so much sense. How did I not know that? 🙄
facts she close to at least tie... for a D1 player, just above the free throw line s close to buckets!
Tennessee played horrible the last 5 seconds. Not making free throws, fouling Fulwiley stopping the clock, and zero defense in the last second.
They gave that game away! When pow pow miss her shout, they 3 .7 seconds on the clock. Instead Tennessee player try too run the clock out. She just stand there an let SC foul her!

Hopefully she want be there to much longer! She has sucked pretty good up to this point! Harper would probably do better at another mid major program ! Do not feel sorry for her she sucked about 6 million from UT the last 5 years

Not dumb at all...1st 3 she made all season..
Damn, I hate to see my Lady Vols lose but this was a great game with a fantastic finish. Exciting can't begin to describe this game.
