A great game!! Alcindor was damn near blind with a double vision eye injury. (Check out his shooting % stats). The game score, (A slaughter), and the Hayes/Alcindor personal duel stats of their next match up, at that season’s NCAA tourney’s semi-finals, was just a wee bit different...
52-20!
One of the five he won or his incredible ‘91 run? JIMMY!!!!!!!
2001 World Series games 4, 5 and 7. Stanley Cup game 7’s. Isner/Mahut Wimbledon marathon.
Then, let each of those networks show their 20 or 30 "greatest" games in their respective sports. I know that MLB has started rerunning their "20 greatest games" series. Watched the Eagles beat the Bears 23-22 in OT last night on MLB. (Oops, it was the Phillies over the Cubs 23-22 in 10 innings).
The regular over the air and basic cable (ESPN, TNT) also have college and other sports games they can show. NBC showed last year's "Player's Golf Tournament" in place of the cancelled 2020 matches. ABC could show a classic Indy 500 on Memorial Day, and CBS could rerun a classic Masters.
If they are making everyone "shelter in place", like here in the Bay Area, give us some alternatives to the infomercials on the weekend!
You can find the 1980 Holiday Bowl on the BYUtv website. And while we’re on Utah centric games, I want to know if Bryan Russel was pushed. :-)
