Evolution of the game...

This clip from 1970 LSU vs Kentucky-- Pete Maravich vs Dan Issel
- Note the animation of the referees, especially the bald one. Imagine if they were like this today?
- Note the traveling and offensive foul calls

Cool.
Most players do not have jump shots.
Many players can only dribble with one hand.
Not very physical.
Game was not played above the rim.

No African Americas on either team. I thought Rupp integrated UK after the UTEP embarrassment in 1966?

UK wouldn't have an African American on their varsity until 1971. LSU integrated that year as well.

Tom Payne was the first black attendee in 1969 and then the 70-71 season and went to the NBA after his sophomore season on hardship. I don't believe the SEC allowed any freshman to play at that time.

You see more palming the basketball in 2 minutes of game time these days than you did in a whole game then.

also..Dunking was banned in the NCAA from 1967 to 1976...The "Lew Alcindor rule"

I would have dominated in that era.
