IT'S PRESENTED BY BUICK ON A NIGHT WHEN UCONN WON THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP AGAIN. 75-60 OVER PURDUE. AND THERE IS NET CUTTING THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. THERE IS ONE SHINING MOMENT THAT'S GONNA HAPPEN. AND YOU'RE GONNA SEE IT ALL HERE ON TBS. WELCOME BACK, EVERYBODY. GREAT TO HAVE YOU WITH US. YOU GOT A CHANCE TO DO WHAT I DO. >> YEAH, 50-YARD DASH AND A GOOD CIGAR WOULD KILL ME RIGHT NOW. LET'S TALK ABOUT HOW THIS HAPPENED, WHY THIS HAPPENED, AND WHAT STOOD OUT FOR YOU THAT VISUALLY YOU CAN BREAK DOWN FOR US. >> INCREDIBLE DEFENSIVE PERFORMANCE, GUARDING THE THREE-POINT LINE WAS INCREDIBLE. THEY DID IT AS A TEAM. THEY DID IT BY THE WAY THEY GUARDED EDEY AND THE WAY THEY STUCK ON THE PREP TERIMETER PLA AND FORCED THEM THE DRIVE THE BALL. THEY REBOUNDED THE BALL EXTREMELY WELL, AND OFFENSIVELY, THEY EXECUTED PERFECTLY AND BROKE THEM DOWN. HERE'S THEIR OFFENSIVE EXECUTION, GUYS. THIS IS WHAT THEY DO. LOOK AT ALL THE ACTION. LOOK AT THE WHITE LINES ARE CUTTING, YELLOW LINES ARE SCREENING. DRIBBLE HANDOFF, ROLL, BACK SCREEN, FLAIR, ALL IN ONE ACTION. THE WHOLE TIME THEY HAVE THE BALL, PURDUE DOESN'T HAVE IT, AND PURDUE IS CHASING SCREENS, THEY'RE BEING BANGED BY SCREENS, THEY'RE STAYING IN THEIR STANCE, THEY'RE COMMUNICATING, THEY'RE GETTING EXHAUSTED. THIS IS PART OF THE WAY THEY WORE DOWN ZACH EDEY AND BRADEN SMITH. LAST GAME, BRADEN SMITH AND ZACH EDEY BOTH PLAYED 40 MINUTES. IN THIS GAME, THEY GOT WORN DOWN. YOU COULD TELL BY THEIR SHOOTING PERCENTAGE. EVEN THOUGH ZACH EDEY WAS INCREDIBLE, IT'S THAT EXECUTION THAT BREAKS YOU DOWN, AND THEY ARE THE BEST IN THE COUNTRY AT IT. >> THIS BRINGS US TO THE IT TAKES MORE AS UCONN PREVAILED BY DOUBLE DID ITS AGAIN. TRISTEN NEWTON, REMEMBER, 19 AND 10 LAST YEAR. HE GOES FOR 20 IN THIS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. >> AS I POINTED OUT, THIS GAME SEEMS TO BRING OUT THE BEST IN HIM. C.K. >> NO TURNOVERS EITHER TONIGHT, WHICH IS HUGE. HE EPITOMIZES WHAT THIS TEAM HAS BEEN. HE'S AT THE HEAD OF IT. HIS DISPOSITION, HIS EXECUTION, HIS POISE, HIS UNFLAPABILITY, ALL OF THAT IS WHO UCONN IS, AND HE BOTTLES IT UP. HE GOT TO THE BASKET, HE CREATED SHOTS FOR OTHER PEOPLE. HE WAS SPECTACULAR, AND HOW ABOUT THAT BACK-TO-BACK M.O.P.s. THAT IS QUITE REMARKABLE. >> 37 -- ACTUALLY, 37-15 FOR ZACH EDEY. 37-10 TONIGHT. IT APPEARED THEY WERE CONTENT TO SAY YOU GO AHEAD AND SCORE, BUT WE'RE GONNA HOLD YOU DOWN. >> GIVE CHUCK HIS CREDIT. >> YEAH, THEY WERE ONE FOR SEVEN. >> THANK YOU. LISTEN, I ALWAYS THINK YOU GOT A GREAT PLAYER IN THE POST, LET HIM SCORE. HE AIN'T GOING TO SCORE 70. HE HAD A REALLY GOOD GAME. BUT YOU SHUT OFF THE OTHER WATER ON THOSE OTHER GUYS BECAUSE THEY WERE REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE. THEY WERE RUNNING THEM OFF THE THREE-POINT LINE. I GOT TO SAY SOMETHING ABOUT THIS UCONN TEAM, MAN. THEY HAD NO HOLES. THEY CAN PLAY BIG, THEY CAN PLAY SMALL, THEY'RE ONE OF THE BEST OFFENSIVE TEAMS I'VE EVER SEEN. ME AND JAY WERE IN THE BACK LIKE, THEY DON'T EVER RUSH. THEY NEVER RUSH. IT'S LIKE WE JUST GOING TO RUN OUR OFFENSE FOR ABOUT 10 TO 15 SECONDS, AND THEY RAN IT TO PERFECTION. THEY GOT A GOOD SHOT OR A LAYUP. IT WAS METHODICAL. COACH HURLEY, MAN, WE ALWAYS TALK ABOUT -- >> THERE HE IS WITH JIM CALHOUN BY THE WAY. >> LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING. THEY PLAY AT THE SAME SPEED ALL THE TIME, ERNE. YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO UP YOUR A GAME IF YOU'RE GOING TO PLAY AGAINST THESE BOYS BECAUSE THEY'RE NEVER GOING TO COME DOWN TO YOUR LEVEL. >> BY THE WAY, WERNER PROVIDING NET CUTTING LADDERS. WESTE I'LL GIVE YOU THE FINAL COMMENT ON THIS SEGMENT. >> ANYONE WHO KNOWS MY FAMILY FOR THE LAST 40 YEARS KNOWS YOU CAN GO TO MY HOUSE AND SEE THE HEAD COACH THERE EATING ALL MY FOOD. I'M SO PROUD OF HIM KNOWING HIM FOR OVER 40 YEARS. HE'S LIKE -- HE CALLS MY BROTHER DAD. AND THEN, WHEN I HEARD COACH HURLEY SPEAK AT THE END AND HE GOES -- IT WAS THE CONFIDENCE, NOT THE ARROGANCE, WE RUN COLLEGE BASKETBALL. THAT'S THE WAY HE SPEAKS IN THE HOUSE. I UNDERSTAND NOW WHY UCONN IS GREAT. I WOULD LOVE TO PLAY FOR A COACH WHO HAS NO ARESERVE IN SAYING HW GOOD YOU ARE OR HOW BAD YOU ARE. BECAUSE HE SAYS -- I REMEMBER I THINK IN 2020 HE SAID, YOU CAN GET US NOW BECAUSE WE'RE COMING. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THEY'RE HERE. >> BIG TIME. >> THAT WAS AFTER A VILLANOVA GAME, WE BEAT THEM AT THE WELLS FARGO CENTER, AND HE SAID, YOU BETTER GET US NOW BECAUSE WE'RE COMING. YOU KNOW WHAT'S GREAT, THAT PICTURE WITH HIM AND JIM CALHOUN, WHEN DANNY AND I WERE COMING UP, JIM CALHOUN WAS A GUY WE ALL LOOKED UP TO, AND WHEN DANNY SAYS UCONN HAS BEEN RUNNING COLLEGE BASKETBALL, HE'S TALKING ABOUT JIM CALHOUN AND KEVIN OLLY AND DOM -- ALL THE HISTORY. >> THOSE SIX TITLES ALL COMING SINCE 1999. >> AMAZING. >> THAT IS A RATIO RIGHT THERE. >> SHOUTOUT TO ALL THE GREAT PLAYERS OF THE PAST. >> RUDY GAY. >> RIP HAMILTON, RUDY GAY. ALL THOSE UCONN HUSKIES THAT HELPED GET NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS. >> BUT THESE GUYS ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT GOT BACK TO BACK. THEY GOT TO GET THEIR FLOWER. THIS IS INCREDIBLE. >> THERE'S HIS SON ANDREW. AGAIN, THAT HURLEY FAMILY, BASKETBALL ROYALTY. >> YES INDEED. >> AND THE HUSKIES ARE THE KINGS AGAIN TONIGHT. WHEN WE COME
