Been watching YouTube highlights of the 1993 game, with Jacque Vaughn’s winning buzzer-beater in overtime. Lots of memories of that one.
I’d come back to KC for the holidays and drove to Lawrence for the game with my old KU girlfriend from the '70s, who was back in town from California. We were both looking for the Hawks to give Bobby Knight his comeuppance. Sans tickets and knowing that the game was a sellout, we hoped that the scalpers wouldn’t ask insane prices for tickets. (We were wrong.)
So we went to Plan B, and scrambled to find a bar that was showing the game on TV. Fortunately just before tipoff, we ducked into a place at 23rd & Iowa. (Coincidentally, it was called the California Bar & Grill, long since gone.) When Jacque hit the 3-pointer to win the game the place went ballistic. Not quite AFH, but the level of craziness was still there, if on a smaller scale. Hell of a reunion for the two of us. What a finish.
No matter how Saturday’s game ends up it can’t match the drama of that one. (By the way, she and I are still good friends…just sent her a Xmas card the other day.)

@Crimsonorblue22 Of course, Jacque is now coaching the Brooklyn Nets. By coincidence, my nephew used to be on their video crew at Barclays Center. While at KU he worked for Rock Chalk Video. A few years back he gave me a tour of their studios in the Fieldhouse. Quite a setup.

I don’t remember the game @nwhawkfan was referring to. Strange because I do recall a lot of nice moments in our history. But living in the ruralest of places in 1993 means we had very limited TV. I don’t even know how I kept up with the Jayhawks back then? I did somehow. Things have changed so much that i don’t miss a game unless i can’t watch live and don’t care to go back and watch us play Central Northern South Dakota state. I do recall being thankful they showed ranked teams scores on the news and since we were almost always ranked I’d see the scores.

So hyped for this game. Been up since 4am!

Students on break and Indiana fans travel well. I’m expecting them to have a decent amount of fans today. Also their 5-star guard Hood-Schifino will play today. Still, I expect us to win because I think our guards are better. KJ will have a tough match up with Trayce Jackson-Davis
-
KU 77 IU 71 is my guess.
-
ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK. KU 69 IU 62
