...think about the 1970 team putting up 75 points in the first half against # 9 Notre Dame in the NCAA tournament, without the benefit of the 3 point shot!!! Finished with 121, likely been over 130 with 3 point play in effect...
I remember that game well, but it was bitter-sweet as it was a NCAA consolation game...I'm glad they dumped those games....think about the 1970 team putting up 75 points in the first half against # 9 Notre Dame in the NCAA tournament, without the benefit of the 3 point shot!!!

Put back a rebound that went straight down from a shot from 22 feet.cost Iowa a National titleAs has been mentioned many times on this board, that team averaged more than 100 points per game in conference games while going 14-0 in Big Ten play. I'll never forget or forgive Pembrook Burroughs III for making the shot that kept the Hawkeyes out of the final four.

That shot landed on the rim like a rotten pumpkin. 😡 😔I am still sick from that horrible bad luck on that shot. Normally it would bounce 10-15 feet away.
