LVille fan and still most stressful game of my life. "This kid is a legend in the state of WV" "taquan dean...baseliiiiine!" Gus Johnson was amazing. WV was amazing. Comeback was amazing. Epic college hoops game. Thanks 4 the upload.

this was around the same few years our football and basketball team used to do battle with WV i miss these days

What a day this was. Gus Johnson with the call for the Louisville OT comeback, and Dick Enberg on the mic for Illinois' crazy OT comeback against Arizona.

I remember watching this game at the newly built Cardinal Cafe. The place was a madhouse. You had to have a reserved seat. It's ironic how some of these coaches would meet multiple times for some of the instant classics in college basketball. Beilein and Pitino would meet again for the 2013 national championship and that game was an instant classic also. Man, this one was a barn burner.

Best UL game ive ever seen in my life...never forget it...ever! The city went nutz! Hats off to WV they came to ball

This was one of the greatest games I've ever seen. Can you imagine that Elite 8 weekend? This game, the crazy Illinois/Arizona game that followed, UNC/Wisconsin was better than expected, and topped off by the wild double OT UK/MSU game. Has there ever been a better Elite 8?

Dude your AWESOME ! Just telling a friend I wouldn't mind looking at some old games ..and my wish came true .. THANK YOU !!!!

Thanks for posting this. Its nice to remember why we call them the "Cardiac Cards". #L1C4

LOVED this team, entertaining to watch them. So many players that put in 110%, especially Gansey and Herber. But D'or was very underrated on this team, he was solid.

Thanks for the upload. I'll surely never forget nearly getting "Pittsnoggled"

OMG ...JUSTIN THANK U FOR THIS CLASSIC SIR!!!!!!!!!

I watch this game live back in 05 and I sttill get nervous watching it in 2019. 1 helluva of a game.

It's still hard to believe we blew that big lead.

Damn, I remember this one! This Elite 8 was 4 incredible down-to-the-wire affairs with 3 of them going to OT, including 2 double OTs if I'm not mistaken.

I remember our whole staff was in the break room during overtime we closed the store lol

Wow... I remember this game as if it was yesterday. Go Cards!

Louisville was fantastic ❤️😁

Hell of a game

Interesting stat about UL being 7-1 in regional finals. Now the Cards are 10-3 (Losses: TWICE against UNC both times in the EAST region, and Michigan State - 2009)

Honestly this West Virginia team sort of changed the game of basketball, their style of offense would later be perfected by the Golden State Warriors, and also nowadays everyone wants a big that can shoot like Pittsnogle

The parallel to this game was the 2012 Elite 8 game against Florida, which the Gators were 8-11 from three point range (led 41-33 at halftime) in the first half, shredding the zone defense. West Virginia made 10 threes, finished with 18 of 27 shooting from that spot. It's very rare to see a center (Pittsnogle, who was 6 of 9) shoot threes that often (MSU's Goran Suton - 2009 was another example)

Wisconsin became the first team since Louisville (2005 - played in Nashville the first weekend) to advance to the Final Four out of the WEST after playing a Fri/Sun pod the first weekend (Wisconsin spent the first weekend in Omaha, which is slightly closer to Madison than Louisville was this past season)

6:45 Louisville beat LSU in the 1980 regional final. The Cardinals beat Iowa in the Final Four.

The Lights out shooting token white kid has always been our kryptonite. ( cant forget about Hansboro in 2008) Oh Spike Albriecht in the final. Travis Deaner from Marquette back in the day. Mcnamara from Syracuse. i could go on all day.

Still the best NCAABB game of all time. Beilein's revenge this weekend

Pitino vs. Beilein. Definitely not for the last time.

Rick said in the press conference that he thought it was Brandon Jenkins who picked up that reach in foul.

One guy today that reminds me of Tyler Hansbrough is Doug McDermott, who some sports analysts are fawning over, leading to the notion that the Bluejays could win the Big East regular season. Frankly, i'd say either Marquette or Georgetown could win the regular season.

FACT: Since 2004, Louisville is the ONLY team in a WEST region bracket to play a first weekend game in a Fri/Sun pod (Nashville) and make the Final Four.

All of West Virginia’s 18 made three pointers were in regulation. They made zero in overtime.

in the early going Louisville have no idea that they have been PITsnoggled to say the least

Ellis couldn't hit a free throw to save his life.

Now look at us smh…

If Rick could of sealed the deal with Sean May and got him to commit. May was the center for UNC, Louisville would of won it all in 2005. Oh well Pitino got his title over Beline in the 2013 title game! Go Cards!!

It sure was.

I remember this game Wvu blew out to a big lead and appeared heading to the Final4 but then rick pinto call a time out for louieville and it was over louieville won ..lol

i hate when that happens in the ncaa tournament so sad

1:35:51

Right outside of

Beline lost this game on the boards ! Should have put a bigger man in the backline of the 1-3-1 zone!

I forgot 'Cisco fouled out with 4 minutes left.

That linkin park 'Points of Authority' intro got me fired up

Hell ya. F wvu

try entering in Elite 8 and not Sweet 16

WVU got robbed in this game

All referees should no longer be able to ref high level sports after age 45. The speed of the game moves too fast. Several times during the game I have heard whistles before any contact or infraction. The refs are anticipating the calls because they no longer can process the information fast enough or can not see the infraction because their eye sight has deteriorated. The goaltending call on Garcia at the 57:10 mark was a clean block. The guy was trying to finger roll the ball over the rim, never was going to use the backboard. Did the finger roll to avoid Myles and never saw Garcia. Refs were going to call a foul but instead changed it to goaltending after no contact was made. The whistle blows almost at same time as Garcia blocks it. This is the reason I can not stand NCAA, the ole boys network lives on. A block call at 1:19:25 is crazy. Another call that the old man has to anticipate because he can longer keep pace mentally and physically. This game was refereed horribly on both ends for both teams. Plenty of calls that were called turnovers on WVU that were clearly fouls and vice versa. Referees should have to have physical done every year to gauge fitness, mental acuity, and eye sight. Crazy but they do not have a single test year to year. Once in the club, you are good.

I have hated Louisville ever since this game!! WVU beat WVU as usual.

try ncaa dot com/march-madness-live/ All but the semis are on there.

Anybody know who the clown of the play by play guy is? Or who his stat guy is? Ya would have thought he might have thrown in a stat or 2 about Pitino's Kentucky teams coming back from being down 20...or 30 at LSU...just sayin'

This is all Louisville has now is glory days of the past. Their program is going out like DePaul did in the 80’s
