Almost forty years later this is still hilarious! Coach Thompson getting his own lucky sweater and the place went bonkers. I was there in the student section and you should have seen all the jaws drop and hit the floor in shock and then the laughter that broke out throughout The Garden. What a great time to be a student and to enjoy college basketball.
Big East basketball was something else back then.Georgetown played for the national championship three times, losing two of the games by a combined three points. Syracuse and Seton Hall lost their respective championship games by one point each. The conference schedule really galvanized teams for deep runs in the tournament.
I saw this game live from an off-campus bar at SUNY/Albany.

Back during a time when college basketball ruled my sports landscape.
The Big East put college basketball on the map
The good old days when life was good 🤗🏀
We need to go back to these times.
College Basketball back then made it so we weren't mourning the end of Football season nearly as much

The golden days of basketball!!
Goosebumps
I hated Georgetown until the sweater reveal. Then I just loathed them, but respected them. 😂
Man I missed this level of college basketball
The score is way ahead by Georgetown whoo!
