from 1977...LOL
Sick so no early Saturday morning workout. Instead, I pulled up the SU-Tennessee game from ‘77 tourney on YouTube.
Bouie, Byrne’s, Shackleford, Kelley & Williams. Orr, Kindel and Drew off the bench. Parker with a cameo when both Bouie & Louie fouled out late in the game.
Parker was in the game about 30 seconds when he took the ball to the rack against King and got stuffed. Had it been 2017 JB instead of 1977 JB, he might have dragged Parker off the floor in the middle of the game.
Both teams changed defenses a lot. Zone, man, press...
Game was called much tighter back then. Lots of tickey-tack fouls. Also called a bunch of charges that would have been blocks today (IMHO).
We were decided underdogs and both Packer and Enberg were surprised that we weren’t being blown out.
Bouie had no offensive game whatsoever but blocked a bunch of shots. He started the trend of SU 5s, with those traits, that has continued for 40+ years.
Orr made Hak, as a freshman, look like an offensive lineman. He weighed 165.
Williams was jet-quick. Kelley was the shooter.
Both Shack and Byrnes could both play. That was a good team.
Unfortunately, the video ended with about 2 mins to go in game so I missed the end of regulation and OT. Last play that I saw was Shack’s hoop and the harm that fouled out King. We went up 6 with possibility of 7 at the time so we must have collapsed to end up going to OT.
No score, no clock on screen. Brutal graphics.
And Juli has done wonders for JB’s wardrobe. Not sure what he was wearing but I’m not sure I would don it on Halloween.
Was anyone from the board there?
