- Professional athletes
in their alma maters.
And tonight we're going to give four of them
the opportunity to defend their schools with their brains.
It's time to play College Knowledge.
[cheering and applause]
First up representing the University of Michigan,
from the Indiana Pacers slam dunk champion
Glenn Robinson III and former NBA star,
now ESPN star, Jalen Rose--
Jalen and Glenn-- and their opponents tonight,
representing the University of Connecticut, Detroit
Pistons all-star Andre Drummond and two- time
all star Caron Butler.
Gentlemen, here are the rules.
The rules are very, very simple.
When you hear a question, buzz in.
Answer that question correctly.
If you don't, the other team will get a chance
to answer it correctly.
And the winner will bring eternal glory to his school.
Are you ready to begin?
- Let's get it. - Yes.
JIMMY KIMMEL: All right.
Don't hit that thing until it's time
or you will get locked out.
Your first question is, if a man has an Oedipal complex,
he is subconsciously sexually attracted to whom?
[beep]
Jalen?
Women.
[laughter]
I'll need a more specific answer.
Andre and Caron, would you like to guess?
An Oedipal complex--
Oedipal.
You said what?
[laughter]
We're going to give no points to both teams for that one.
The answer was his mother.
Oedipus was attracted to his mother.
Our next question is--
I should've known that, should've known that.
--which is the largest artery in the human body--
the largest artery in the human body?
- What's that? - Wait, what?
[inaudible]
What's that one?
I can read his lips.
You can't Google it.
[laughter]
There was nowhere in the rules that said I couldn't do that.
Were you reaching back to Google it?
I was.
I was getting ready to turn away for a second.
JIMMY KIMMEL: I'll check the rules.
I don't know that that's not allowed.
But does anyone have a guess?
Artery?
We're looking for, you know, one of those things
that the blood goes through. [ding]
Jalen? - Heart.
JIMMY KIMMEL: The heart? No.
No, the heart is--
no.
Andre and Caron?
I wanted to say it's in the leg.
Oh, no.
I'm sorry, it is the aorta.
We are off to a flying start.
And I know--
[applause]
I know that the--
[applause]
I know that the chancellor at your respective universities
are deeply ashamed right now.
[laughter]
Wait, I've got to say something first.
JIMMY KIMMEL: Yes, go ahead.
I went to school for six months.
So that shouldn't--
[laughter]
And only-- only basketball and football players
are forced to go to college.
[laughter]
Jalen makes an excellent point.
Our next question, Charleston is the capital
city of which US state?
[beep] - South--
JIMMY KIMMEL: Andre?
South Carolina?
JIMMY KIMMEL: Charleston?
No, it is not.
There is a Charleston, South Carolina.
It is not the capital city.
I believe Columbia's the capital of South Carolina.
I should know that.
Jalen and Glenn, would you like to steal?
Well, you just said the answer, right?
JIMMY KIMMEL: Charles-- no, I did not.
- He did not. - No.
But you say it.
You say it.
I only say the questions.
Next question.
[laughter]
I don't know.
I done got too many wrong already.
So you-- JIMMY KIMMEL: Yes, Glenn?
I said Virginia.
JIMMY KIMMEL: Virginia? [buzzer]
Very close.
West Virginia is what we were looking for.
[groaning]
Oh, wow.
All right, our next question.
We don't get a half a point?
We get a half a point.
JIMMY KIMMEL: No, no.
You don't even get half a point for that one.
You get half of no points for that one.
ANDRE DRUMMOND: Wait, can we get a question for being funny?
JIMMY KIMMEL: Here we go.
Which doctor is credited with inventing
the game of basketball in 1891?
[beep] - Jalen?
James Naismith.
JIMMY KIMMEL: That is absolutely right, Jalen!
[cheering]
You're on the board.
You don't-- you don't get to wipe your jersey.
You didn't answer that.
I'm the oldest person up here.
That's why.
I'm showing my age.
JIMMY KIMMEL: Next question, what chemical element
is represented by the symbol K?
The letter K represents--
yes, Glenn? - Potassium.
JIMMY KIMMEL: That is right, Glenn!
[cheering and applause]
You guys have to get the next two to catch up.
Next question, which US president--
who first one election in 1800-- appears on both the nickel
and the $2 bill?
The nickel and the $2 bill, which president is on them?
[ding] - This is you.
JIMMY KIMMEL: Glenn?
Jefferson.
JIMMY KIMMEL: That is absolutely right.
[cheering]
And, Mizzou, I'm sorry.
But there is no way for UCONN to catch up.
This game is over.
And, Michigan, you are the winner.
Congratulations, you are the College Knowledge champions.
Dicky, please tell them what they've won.
DICKY BARRETT: Jalen and Glenn, you
receive a box of ramen noodles wrapped in an honorary degree
from Trump University.
JIMMY KIMMEL: And, Dicky, please, our consolation prize.
What do the losers get?
DICKY BARRETT: A box of ramen noodles
wrapped in an honorary degree from Trump University.
JIMMY KIMMEL: Wow, that's something.
Thank you Jalen, Glenn, Andre, and Caron--

This is amazing.
