I have no memory of 1975 (I didn't exist) or 1987 (I was four) but the rest I think there are two moments. The first occurs during the regular season when the team shows they have the potential for greatness. The next moment occurs leading up to or in the Tournament where something sparks and the "momentum" truly occurs.

(a) Winning at #3 Arizona shortly before Christmas

[B]2003[/B]

(b) being down 25-8 in the 2nd round vs. a good Oklahoma State team and not only winning, but winning going away

(a) Winning at #1 Louisville in January
(b) Going on a nice BET run (including a win over #5 Georgetown in the semifinals)
