Larry Johnson looked like grown man playing with kids out there.

Greatest college basketball team I've ever seen.

This BLOWOUT NEVER GETS OLD!!!!

The fastest and the most athletic team ever in college 🏀

Boy I remember this like it was yesterday. I was a ten year old kid, we went and watched the game at Thomas and Mack Center, they had it on the big screen there. Afterward, driving home the streets were packed with people partying and I remember hanging out the window of our car high-fiving random strangers as we drove by. What an awesome night.

I'll always believe that the' 91 championship game was fixed. Unlv had no business losing to duke.

My favorite college team of all-time! Special talent.

I remember this game. It was like watching the Globetrotters against the Washington Generals.

Greg anthony , stacey augmon , and larry Johnson 🔥

For all that superficial bravado on the part of Duke they were literally scared of UNLV. The Rebels should’ve repeated the following year for back to back titles as well.

It s a sad day in rebel nation we lost coach tark 1930-2015

Stacey Augmon was my favorite player 🏀

R.I.P. "TARK THE SHARK!"

UNLV scoring over 100 points like just another day at work! lol!

They were the best college team to watch, they played NBA style!

U.N.L.V. RUNNING REBELS WERE #1 WORLD RECORD OF 103 POINT IN NCAA MEN BASKETBALL GAME FINAL IN THE HISTORY. 25th anniversary of 1990 U.N.L.V. rebels championship final. P.s. thank you Jerry trak. Rest easy.

Probably could’ve be an NBA team!💯🔥🔥🔥🔥

I remember everyone hated Duke back then and we're happy to see Vegas crush them

Coach Jerry Tarkanian sings with the angels. He was a great man.

I remember this game live. I was SHOCKED like most people who watched college basketball during this era. 8th grade middle school. I want really even a college basketball fan but there was so much hype about UNLV. At the time EVERYONE WAS ON THE BANDWAGON. THE GREATEST UPSET IN COLLEGE BASKETBALL at that time.

I was 10 during tgis fame and livd in Vegas as I still do, Cant believe UNLV is STILL THE ONLY TEAM to go over 100 and it is still largest margin of victory ever. Vegas woud not be rabid like this again until 27 years later with the arrival of the Golden Knights.

Still the best college 🏀 team I've ever seen

The best college team of all time. LJ was a man amongst boys. Anderson hunt lit Duke up for 40 plus points and still went undrafted in the NBA draft. Man the powers that be hated UNLV which added to their mystique.

The worse ass whipping in a National Championship game EVER!!!!! Duke you own this one.

The UNLV yell after a dunk was my favorite thing to watch The streets we’re definitely watching

best team ever.

LJ should’ve took that 3 in 91’. The greatest college team ever

This is what I call a Championship game. Runnin' Rebs owned.

I loved every minute of this beat down... H~

That was a Damn good night.

Yup very sad day Rip Tark your the best

Completely agree! I watch the way college games are today and you almost never see transitions off of rebounds and/or takeaways like this anymore.

Greatest college basketball team I ever saw, LJ was just a man playing amongst boys

Wow... i remember hearing about this UNLV team; but DAMN; they gave a legendary program and Coach i think the worse ass whipping I ever seen in a NC Game. My goodness

Should've had atleast 2 Chips!! Therefore I can't consider them TBE. They were however THE BEST in my generation. #70'sBaby!😁🏆💯

UNLV: The Mid Major who became so popular, you didn't remember what conference they played in. Gonzaga: The Mid Major who can't seal the deal, and reminds you how weak The WCC is.

Loved this team and coach

I will never ever forget the night they won. I was 8 years old and my mom took my sister and I to drive to the Thomas and Mack Center to celebrate lol 😂

2 of the best college guards I’ve ever seen play in an NCAA tournament. There are historically very few teams that could have beaten them in March/April of1990

And never forget - UNLV's 103-73 win over Duke marked the first, (and to date, only), time in the history of the tournament that at least 100 points were scored in the championship game. UNLV’s 571 points over six games set the record for most points scored by a single team in any one year of the tournament. UNLV is the only team in tournament history to average more than 90 points per game - 95.1. In six tournament games, they won three by exactly 30 points, while scoring more than 100 points in each 30-point victory. UNLV’s 30-point margin of victory in the championship game is also a tournament record. To date, UNLV remains the last team from a non-power conference (AAC, ACC, Big East, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12, and SEC) to win the national championship; and the only one since 1977. The championship game was UNLV’s eleventh-consecutive win. They would eventually run the win streak to an astounding 45 games. That is the fourth-longest win streak in NCAA Division 1 basketball history, and the longest win streak since the longest one ever (by UCLA) ended in 1974.

UNLV lol was crazy with the handles court vision on point! Most excited team 💯!

I don’t care what ANYONE says about this team, the 90-91 UNLV team was one of the greatest teams put together!!!!!!!

I still LOVE IT, loved this team, but most importantly. Fkk duke

Beautiful win!

Tarks 90/91 UNLV squad was simply the most dominant college basketball team since the UCLA/Wooden era.

Back when one was shown how the west was won!

Wished that the Rebels had won the following year it would have cemented them as one of the greatest teams ever!!!!!!!!

Greatest performance in a college basketball game I've ever seen.

takes me back

Well they did something that Fab Five could never do: beat Duke, and beat them bad.

💥 CLASSIC 💥

2020 to 2021 Gonzaga team reminding me of UNLV!

They were awesome.

UNLV was the best tcollege team of the 90's. There were dominant

Game played in Denver. It was also the last time a Final Four would be played in a small arena. McNichols Arena held about 17,000 seats at the time.

UNLV had a pretty good team that year IIRC.

I remember watching the 1991 quarter finals, and thinking to myself, "this is not the same team from last year". They beat the brakes off the very same team(Duke), and just seemed not to be in the building then. I hoped that it wasn't fixed, but I know in my heart it was. Damn shame, could have been way above any other team, EVER!

LJ would then get drafted by Charlotte and become a full on superstar and reach legend status

My boys. Alma Mater 1990 UNLV

Plastic Man is my favorite college hoops player of all time.

I stand corrected taylor.

if a duke highlight from this game existed it would have been shown

I remember the post game when Larry Johnson said call us thugs,criminals,etc.........just remember to call us champions....... Loved the Moses Scurry yell.....

The greatest thing about this UNLV team was not the dunks or the blocks. It was the fact that they could pass the ball like few teams could on the fast break. That's what hurt most teams that played UNLV.

@blackadam06 Yeah I know. Like I said below, I made a typo. I meant to say '91.

Anderson Hunt is Raw.

Three classic coaches in NCAA history one is Jerry tarkanian Jim valvamo and the third and final is the one from Villanova but the current coach

UNLV was a combination of Georgetown, Arkansas,Michigan all rolled into one

@MetsFan4Life11238 Oh yeah, not sure why I said '93. I meant to say '91.

They put the shirts and hats on before the game was over 😂 I've never seen that before

UNLV in 1990 was a lot like Gonzaga is today - a powerhouse program in a non-power conference that wins 30+ games every season, will play anyone anywhere, almost never loses at home, always in the tournament, but 0 for 2 in Final Fours with people questioning whether they could ever really get over that last hurdle and win it all.

Best college team ever period.

@Pac0daTac0 Uhh...neither duke nor vegas were in the Final Four in '93

so true

unlv is the only college basketball team i've ever rooted for long term. their games were on here in l a. in the mid 80s on channel 9 with chick hearn calling them from las vegas. at halftime, he'd bring on someone from one of the hotels in town to talk about the place while some video of it ran. i wondered even then if that was legal for them to do, as if you could gamble at whatever hotel chick's guest worked for, it'd be a soft approval of gambling at a time when there was still a huge taboo against it outside of vegas and anywhere near college sports. well usc and ucla were hardly ever on tv, so i became a runnin reb fan for life. (although i did get into loyola marymount at thus time too, as they were like unlv on steroids; rest well hank) such an easy team to like. high scoring. ran a lot. cute cheerleaders. a cool mascot. the indiana loss at the superdome (97-93; don't even have to look it up) was my first sports heartbreak, but this night was the payoff for what was, at the time, about 4-5 years of fandom. i had to work late this night, then take a couple of friends home, but got home to watch the last 5:00 or so. 1900 and 1991 unlv is still the best college ball teams i've ever seen. such a fun team and time. right before he died, pasadena city college out here did a nice ceremony on campus for tark and i think unveiled some kind of tribute to him there (statue, plaque; i forget what). PCC is like 15 minutes from where i work, and i thought about going, but didn't. tark was in a wheelchair i think by that time, and i just didn't want to see him like that. when i watch the rebs today (and i still do) to a degree, i see this era and this game, and that's not good. unlv's been "meh" for so long now. noone (players, coaches, admin.) seems to want to stay there. how hard can it be to recruit 18 and 19 year old guys to come to las vegas? but when they're on these days, and the rebs are at .500 and may or nay not be winning in front if 5,000 at the t &m my mind always wanders back to nights like this. good good times.

That was a Damn good night!

still the best college Bball team ever built .. Runnin Rebels!!!

Anderson Hunt was my favorite Running Rebel.

"Time out Duke". LOL! Thats about all Duke could do that day.

Highlights. Or lowlights, depending.

Fond memories.....

This game was over when they finished the player intros.

The center for duke is now the commentator for the sixers lol

Men playing against Boys. LOL This UNLV team is consider the best of all time.

Larry Johnson made rebounding cool

Best team money can buy.

Rip coach Fresno love .

Has there ever been this many dunks In a game?

I agree... I think it was a fix... The Rebels were the much better team in 91 and should have back 2 back banners hangin in Vegas

Remember UNLV at 14 years old they dominated Duke. If Gonzaga had toughness like UNLV the zags would win a championship

I forgot how loaded this team was 3 out 5 dudes got drafted top 12.

THOSE WERE GREAT TIMES UNLV!!! IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A REPEAT AND A PERFECT SEASON IN 1991, BUT IT'S ALL GOOD!! DUKE IS A GREAT TEAM TOO!! I'M JUST GLAD I LIVED TO SEE MY HOMETOWN RUNNING REBELS BECOME THE BEST TEAM IN AMERICA!!

None of the players for UNLV received cash under the table, none got fake grades to stay eligible, and they all graduated from college with honors. It would be interesting to see how every member of that Duke team is doing now compared to all the UNLV players.

Complete domination

Stacey Augmon's dunk at 2:02 is one of the most ridiculous dunks I've seen at any level of basketball

true

i agree takecare

Great coach Tark is hall of fame bound

Best team ever.

LOL @ Coach K's face at 4:46
