Thursday's game is almost 41 years since 'that' game.
I was in High School and was at a High School Tournament and listened to the game on an Arvin 8 transistor radio pressed against the bus window on the trip home. I remember being super bummed out.
You could not drive around Kentucky for years without seeing just 107-83 painted on rocks, water towers, t shirts, or any flat object not guarded by the police.
Lost that night but reminded me of some sweet times.

(81,871 posts)But I still wonder why WKU was put in that game. Why not keep them away from Kentucky. I think that a lot of the matchups this year are about TV ratings.

(29,322 posts)but I think the worst 16 seeds play in a play-in game to face the #1 overall seed. WKU/MSVT certainly qualify as the worst 16 seeds.

We don't want to play our in state teams, if the player were good enough they would come here. LOL
State of Kentucky, a poor small state, has 4 teams this year in the NCAA's. Douchebags
