4:00 Bucky Waters breaks down the PG match up between Bobby Hurley and Jalen Rose
6:20 Bill Raftery gives us the first “Michigan is hood, Duke is model citizens” of the night. I think it is a rule that Notre Dame and Duke are choir boys no matter what.

21:45 Raftery talking about Michigan not woofing and how it is helping them. Brant says “They say it motivates them.” Raftery fires back “Didn’t in the Final 4!”. Oh I am sorry Mr. Raftery that a team starting 5 freshman lost to one of the greatest college basketball teams in history in the National Championship game.
22:52 Steve Fischer in this time wasn’t regarded as a “Great” coach and the Fab 5 was thought to be a “hully gully” team. They run great, precise offense and inbound plays though.
23:20 Hurley to Grant Hill all oop- A thing of beauty

37:47 Michigan attacks the offensive glass
39:30 Duke goes to zone, trying to force Michigan to make an outside shot. And they force a turnover.
43:15 Jalen Rose killing Duke guards on the block. Basketball is simple! You have a 6’8 point guard, you run stuff to get him on the block.
47:20 Michigan has been called for 3 charges at this point. Hurley blatantly runs into a Michigan defender and gets a no call.

1:01:48 Hill with a great backdoor
1:06:56 Jimmy King shooting FT’s and there are 7 guys on the FT lane. Looks so weird!
1:10:20 Hurley full court pass to Hill for a dunk. The Crazies are going…well crazy!
1:12:30 Michigan gets a defensive rebound, end up throwing an outlet pass to their 5 (Howard), who promptly dribbles length of the floor and hits King for a lay up.
1:13:05 Mike Brey in a suit!

1:35:15 King hits a 3 and Michigan time out 72-66 Duke
1:38:39 Webber offensive rebound-put back- Timeout 73-68 Duke

1:49:06 Hurley hits a lay up at the buzzer to make it 79-68. Duke, so classy!
