At 9:39, May and Wilkerson bring the ball down the court without the ball ever touching the floor, and a layup! It's a thing of beauty.

I listen on a small radio in my bedroom to this game. I was ten years old! I looked out my window,and couldn't see hardly any cars on the street that night. I was so excited,and nervous. That's the night I started following sports. The next team I fell for were the Pittsburgh Steelers. Then on to present!!!

The greatest teacher of the college basketball was bk weather want admit it or not he had to be the most loyal to the game I ever seen look bk carried the game for 20 years he's the reason hell even football coaches stole slot of what he after duke beats Kentucky in 92 nobody talks about that finial four matchup one the greatest Hoosier teams of all time look Cheney and Henderson were superstars but watch the tapes they look different in those uniforms pay attention closely and u will clearly see the devotion those kids played with

Us old Hoosiers know the 75 team was even better. Wrong injury. Wrong time.

@ronburgandy5006 3 роки тому

My gosh the what if? if May didn't get injured in 75. Hoosiers went 63-1 in back-to-back seasons.

I grew up in this era. “Hysteria” is legit. Kids like myself were called inside for “The Bob Knight Show”. I was a pissed little kid when we lost (should’ve beat) UK. I still consider myself the biggest IU fan to never be fortunate enough to go to IU. Thanks to my mother. #GoBigRed #HoosierNation #UNDEFEATED BABY!!!!

A hopes that one day will return to it's glory. I believe big change is coming with Woodson, and eventually, Dane Fife.

U see this smile from knight. As he aged for some reason he didnt smile like that ever. His record was great in his earlier years. His kids went to class. He was a serious man... dedicated to his trade.

@fatherdmj Місяць тому

It was odd to see him smile. If you watch the NBC coverage, it looks as if Coach Knight is unhappy and sullen. An undefeated national championship and he looks as if it’s nothing.

Very interesting this is the last season for the the ban on dunking in college and high school. Over the next two years it changed so many things at both levels. Not to mention viewership...
