Message: [QUOTE="longtimefan, post: 1332313, member: 212"] MSU-Loyola was important, but not as memorable because it was a first round game. Which is why it's seldom referenced these days, On the other hand, Texas Western-UK was a championship game. In those days, the FF games weren't even on national TV. As for the early round games, unless you lived in the local area of one of the contesting teams, you had to wait to see the score in the agate the next day. [Edit] And, I didn't have to go back 49 years to do the impugn thing-- Payne wasn't recruited until the early '70's and the Fed Ex episode was in 1988 or '89. And I'm sure that dark money didn't disappear just because the package popped open. A minor bump in the road. [/QUOTE]
