UNC vs FSU 1993

[@davidstahl3274]

Can't believe that this game was twenty four years ago, my goodness I am getting old. RIP COACH SMITH

[@joesanchez2689]

Love the Tar Heels, I still have this game recorded on an old VHS tape, never get tired of watching this game, Rodl was the player who sparked this amazing comeback, hitting the 3's and causing the turnovers and making steals.

[@keithfalconer7529]

I remember like yesterday… Sam and the wine & cheese crowd comment

[@Flair4theGold]

That Lynch steal at 1:11:42 was one of the loudest moments I ever experienced live at the DeanDome. This was my junior year at UNC.

[@claybailey3909]

F4tG the and 1 against duke in 05 was loud to

[@geod3589]

Vitales voice cracking.. up by one-uunnn.. lol

[@viviandarkbloom100]

I wish they could have measured that explosion in the Dean Dome when Lynch stole and dunked that ball. Great memories.

[@marke.tarantino3462]

I was at this game.... Amazing comeback!!!

[@relicman]

I'm a Tarheel fan but this was one of my favorite FSU teams ever. I loved the 3 guard attack scheme.

[@bigtarheelfan]

Thanks for sharing, I remember watching this game with my late father. Brings back a lot of good memories.

[@gregstephens4028]

The most impressive thing about this comeback was it took like 1 1/2 minutes to get back in the game haha.

[@EACNUT]

I remember watching this game.

[@weshnolefan]

Our guards were so nasty that season. Cassel, Ward and Bob Sura. On the inside Doug Edwards was a beast and Dobard is the FSU career shot block leader. I have a lot of great memories of that team even though we got eliminated in the sweet 16

[@randydubin7118]

weshnolefan You guys competed very well in only your second season in what always has been the toughest conference in the country for my money. Everybody doubted you guys coming into the ACC (not knowing that the 'Noles did reasonably well in the Metro), but with three starting guards that went to have solid NBA careers, you had a good team.

[@josephscott6388]

when you have 3 nba guards (even if they're not all Stars or hofers) its pretty hard to not have a pretty damn good team. this unc team won the national championship without any nba guards. having 3, even journeymen at one time is pretty rare.

[@paulsonj72]

Actually this team got to the Elite 8 losing 106-81 to Kentucky in the Regional Final

[@bigtarheelfan]

I remember this team the year before (1992) when they came from 22 down to beat Wake Forest. I think Hubert Davis had like 23 points in the 2nd half.

[@KG-qk1qp]

So here's my "where were you when..." story: I was in just my 2nd year of active duty in the Air Force (retired after 20+ years in 2012) and was stationed at Grissom AFB, IN. However, the night this game was played I was actually at Charleston AFB, SC, preparing to go on a temp duty assignment to Honduras the next morning. As I watched the game in my hotel room in disbelief (I'm a Tarheel fan), when FSU went up by 21, I shut the game off because I was mad as hell and went to sleep since I had to be in the passenger terminal by 0500 the next morning. I get over to the passenger terminal the next morning and check-in and all that jazz, then head over to the waiting area. I notice there's a TV in one corner so I go sit down by it. Wouldn't you know it, the game is being shown and it's right at the part just a minute or so before FSU goes up by 21. I think to myself, "well, guess I can watch the rest and see how much NC lost by". Over the next 30 minutes, I couldn't believe what I was seeing and when the game was over I just sat in that chair with my mouth agape, still trying to digest the fact that Carolina had just come back from 21 down and won. I was snapped out of my stupor a couple minutes later when an announcement came over the intercom saying my flight had been pushed back 24hrs due to maintenance issues. (C-5s were notorious for breaking down back then) I finally made it down to Honduras 2 days later, then got to watch NC win the National Championship 2 1/2 months later.

[@KaiCM1984]

This is a big reason why I keep these videos up on my channel. I love it when people share their personal stories about a particular game. Thank you for sharing your story and GO HEELS.

[@willfromyadkinville]

i will never forget this game! it was straight fire!

[@roymerritt6992]

When Donald Williams was on the free throw line he was money in the bank!!

[@polog2170]

D. Williams my cousin

[@iatros5408]

Vitale at 1:00:00, "Freeze that, look at that mouth, are you kidding me" Omg, I cried laughing

[@CeeGee0711]

90s Big Mondays and Super Tuesdays always had great matchups and big energy (back when we didn’t have 40000 chsnnrls)

[@byff2323]

After this game, I swear, I picked UNC to go all the way, and they did.

[@sheridanclan6]

I had a perfect seat high up in the lower section right in the middle of the court. I could see Lynch's steal a mile away. It was almost in slow motion. When he dunked it, the Dean Dome was the loudest I had heard it in my 4 years at UNC>

[@MrBmick79]

what an unbelievable game. Florida State had them on the ropes, but you can tell they got tired,. UNC took that game from them.

[@Majesticon]

Dick Vitales call gives me absolute chills.

[@TheKWilson805]

It's funny, I didn't remember this game at first look, but I do remember because this is where I wanted to bench B. Reese & H. Rodil watching this one. But I did think FSU was way more athletic, but Montross was a beast (as usually). Go 'Heels!!!

[@speakingtruths4215]

Virtually every team they played was way more athletic. Look at the team they beat in the final game.

[@lawman446]

My first ever game at the Dome! Epic!

[@KaiCM1984]

Hell of a game to be your first. I might rival you with UNC vs. Duke at the Dome in 2005. Marvin putback was one of the loudest moments in my live sports fandom!

[@noelallen1984]

FSU never had a better team than this squad Charlie Ward was mr every thing great defense good shot nice handles great team

[@speakingtruths4215]

Yeah, that lackadaiscal cross court pass he made though. Sam Cassell can tell me all about the wine and cheese crowd after that play that put UNC up 78-77.

[@tomace4898]

Here after UNC's 2nd half comeback v Dayton in Maui.

[@KaiCM1984]

I was anticipating someone commenting on this, nice lmao.

[@joshtillman625]

Same

[@plcustodian]

When I saw this game, the real "silent assassin" was Henrik Rodl, who didn't a good shooting first half and then hit three straight 3's to help NC close the gap and also his defense helped a lot. But overall, it was the NC bench that came through.

[@billyho911]

I was a student at UNC-W friend of mine called and said he had a person that cancelled going with him. Did I wanna go???? Me.... Hell Yes!!!! I couldn't talk for 2 days after that game.

[@TempeSoldier123]

That FSU team should have made it to the Final Four.

[@pineytreez6811]

Not in our house Noles!!!..😁..Go Tarheels!!

[@bigtarheelfan]

Dean Smith show at 1:31:00.

[@davidfisher462]

Heisman trophy winner Charlie Ward goes down in the Dean Dome!

[@MrCleverheel]

01:07:38 "that was not a dirty foul on the part of Charley Ward..."...in football....

[@rolemodlin]

Heisman winner Charlie Ward.

[@geod3589]

What was the technical foul about?

[@MrTpeppers]

I was there and stormed the court.

So interesting to see the difference in how games are broadcast. Everything looked so clean. No constant scrawls and useless stats clogging up the screen. On another note, I honestly can't remember if I watched this game back then. I was in high school and going through some personal stuff. I usually missed those weeknight games. I definitely watched that game they showed highlights of at the beginning. That Jalen tip-in win in Hawaii hurt. Redemption four months later though :)
