Bobref Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Could not resist this one for some of my Purdue friends (cough, cough ... @Coach Nowlin... cough). I believe this gem was attributed to Bobby Knight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, the starting 5 for UCLA’s 1970 champs was Sydney Wicks, Curtis Rowe, Henry Bibby, Steve Patterson, and Terry Schofield. Larry Farmer was first off the bench, I think.

But they won the national championship with a 1 loss season. See if you can guess who gave them the single blemish on their record that season.

Bill Walton says that game STILL haunts him. I remember that the UCLA ND game was always a big rivalry game back then. That was the same year though that a phantom foul called against Steve Downing from IU on Walton in the tournament kept them on track for the title streak, right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, the Irish bookended UCLA’s 88 game winning streak. After that game in Jan. 1971, the Bruins didn’t lose again until the Walton-led team was upset at ND 81-80 in Jan. 1974. Irish scored the last 11 points of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
