COLLEGE HOOPS
rebound
foul
UConn’s gonna get out of here with a victory
see what they’ve got yet
Syracuse up next
Seton Hall is playing much better
they’ve gotta play Marquette
five and five at the line tonight, ten points and seven assists
great Big East match-up between Syracuse and UConn
that’s always fun
Harris
get it to go
Adrian with the rebound
double
playing an outstanding game
not only playing number one but playing in a hostile environment
UConn wins it
it’s college game day driven by State Farm
your entire ESPN crew
in Spokane, Washington
the Zags on a nine game winning streak
ready to run in Spokane
because when I arrive I
I bring the fire make you come alive
let it rock let it rock let it rock
because when I arrive I
I bring the fire make you come alive
just let it rock let it rock let it rock
welcome to College Game Day driven by State Farm
crowd is still filing in here in Spokane Arena
nine straight
win streak great conference match-up in store
Digger Phelps, Bob Knight
going for it right now
and these two teams also hoping to enhance their tournament credibility
blowout
they played earlier in the week
the handoff and the punch
the only field goal that made the highlights
with thirty-two and thirty-four of the big ones tonight
forty-seven point performance against Clemson
keep an eye on
he misses
any time you give him
they got out of that and that’s why they played so well
an elbow right to the chest
wasn’t an elbow just a facial performance here
twenty-two points and that was his first twenty point game since January
Henderson only had one point in the first half
I don’t know how you defend that any better
six seconds to go
had an opportunity for a put-back
Duke’s up by two
fif-teen
four point lead
finished up with nineteen points and the Blue Devils bounce back
I think one of the things that’s really important to understand here
twenty-four points
that’s something they always rely on, that pressure defense
that defense, though, is based on position
and really good help-side defense
his team showed a lot of character
he was complimentary to his team in the last twenty-two minutes, as he phrased it
they’re very good defensively
and he came back from that and I thought did a great job
gets thirteen rebounds
off the bench
Florida State
Jay, I agree with you
I said this before, Jay, that’s not gonna get it done
they have to play a bigger lineup
that’s not gonna get it done
it’s not gonna get it done in the NCAA tournament
they have to play D
it’s a little of a push and shove kind of thing here
they play basketball
hard to guard
they’re gonna get to the free-throw line
I agree with you Coach, that is their best lineup
get points in the paint
rebound the basketball
not only this year but the last couple years
it’s a question of balance
and that’s about it
and if they’re not knocking shots down
shoot the ball well
twenty-three shots today
because Miami’s not a big physical team
that’s what was so important about this win tonight
to make sure we’re ready to go up against Carolina
a school record
they had Virginia coming in
whoah-oah, nice!
Danny Greene stepping in there and Thompson helps out with a block
sixty-five percent
sixteen points
eight in the first half
Ellington has been burning it up
three point range
who had a game high twenty
he had thirty four
making the three
four assists
it’s impossible that Ellington
I was gonna say
doesn’t have the short game
hey, hey, let me tell you something
what’re you talking about?
if I wouldn’t have been talking about defense
I’ll tell you what though, I’ve seen Hubert Greene getting down in the stance
a sweater with ESPN right on the side
you better bring a knee brace
okay, okay
so North Carolina get set
senior night
not senior night this time
trying to finish his career four-and-oh
we’ll hear from John Callaperi
number one UConn stepping up
oh no, Digger magic
maybe a little rematch game
put on a show again
after a long discussion with my friends and my family, I’ve decided to sign with the Cleveland Browns, baby
unbelievable

College Game Day is presented by State Farm
the NCAA tournament
GMC
we are professional grade
so we’re thirty minutes away from tip-off
the best freshman in the country
spoke with
alright Reese, thanks so much
newspaper
over Gonzaga
feel like the Zags
field goal percentage defense
they’re really good
I’m from Pittsburgh
that is a Pittsburgh thing, nothing to do with Spokane
this is gonna be a fun event
this is one of those games when you learn about defense
and that’s what’ll happen in the NCAA tournament
what do you think he’ll try to explain?
try to push the ball on us
try to get baskets and threes and
maybe put us in pick and rolls
look when you schedule a game
gotta do some bargaining
our building seats nineteen thousand
this game was supposed to be in Seattle
these fans are as good as they get
and they’re not the mean nasty
they’re just great fans
great hotel
hopefully we can leave here intact
we’ll save a few towels for you
what is Erica doing giving away towels?
I don’t know
I’m gonna have to look into that
zombie nation
we’ve been through that
a half-hour away from tip-off
had just a rough day
two for twelve
that’s about twenty below his average
he only had one rebound
a much better player all around
the post-to-post doubles
this team does a good job of running the floor
a sixteen point lead in the second half
Bruins by nineteen
oh, working with Darin Collins
all kinds of issues
a day that Notre Dame would like to forget
Michigan and UConn
getting it through to Hagan, here’s Stanley Robinson
the zone defense
this is how they got going
they got the lead
Michigan has the lead the first half
scoring in transition
it wasn’t just the shooting
just like they did there
they just moved the ball around the perimeter
they really didn’t get into the zone
ninety seconds to go, here’s Douglas again
big three
and that came off the dribble penetration right there
it’ll stay that way
really struggled
Sam Young, Young had a double-double
Jermaine is a silent force on this team
a career high for him
then he had the nice dish inside
ninety two to sixty nine
hot-handed Scotty Reynolds
Dante Cunningham
Donovan McNabb was there
Cunningham
that’s just using angles well and see how he moved his man
Syracuse
that’s the second field goal
that is not gonna help you on the road
really struggled
Cunningham had thirty-one points
he had thirty-one
well I think that not only did he do a really good job on the post
you think about offense
we played a lot of defense in that first half
here’s Cincinnati and Georgetown
this must be a payback game
his team was up at the half
three four five
fifty seconds
Greg Monroe
traveling call
it’s hard to believe
Hoyas down by two
drawing the foul but he did not get the call
sixty-four to sixty-two
making a little bit of noise
sitting there with one loss
Jay, I said earlier this afternoon
we were talking about Notre Dame
I think it’s amazing
this is the team that I think everybody thought would be a top twenty team
we’re wondering if Notre Dame will be able to survive
they could worry about not getting it
that’s extraordinary
when you get the second chance points
miss the threes
they’re going backwards
it’s a mental thing now, they are beat down
that’s what I think
they just start hanging their heads a little bit
teams would not be scoring against them as much as they are
that was a must win situation
against Marquette
Georgetown’s in a similar situation
well they’re not giving up all the points
this is an experienced group out there
in late April
to get nineteen
listen
ninety-six
five
Cincinnati coming back in with West Virginia
Gonzaga at Memphis
very balanced offense, indeed
Spokane Arena

(For a half hour, I wrote down everything I heard as quickly as possible coming from my roommate’s TV, set to a college basketball show on ESPN.)
