These are the first color photos I have seen from our Final Four team.

awesome pics!!!:49ers:

I heard a slightly older Niner talking about the Michigan Elite 8 game, & how the UM people looked at the Niner fans like they didn’t belong there.
So one Niner asked them at the end, do you have Final 4 tickets? We do!
I thought that was hilarious!

We were sort of viewed as a Cinderella team, yet those familiar with college basketball knew just how good we were.

We had quite a bit of notoriety the entire year. Our game against Wake sold out the Greensboro Coliseum, and I know of some Wake fans that still consider that game one of the best non-conference Wake games ever played.

I found some more photos here.
BTW, thanks for digging these up. Those photos of the Niners bring back lots of fond memories.

Something else… It’s not mentioned very often, but rumor has it that we had the best statistician in all of college basketball that year.

I heard Cornbread on the radio one time, and he said that the Michigan fans were taunting us saying “We have football!” He responded with something like, “You will have plenty of time to get ready for football while we’re playing in the Final Four.”

Is there a website that has the schedule and results from that season? I’m interested to see stat lines from all games that year.

Should we start a new thread about the 76-77 season or change the name of this thread to include the whole season?

New strategy for the video: Rapidshare. Should be up tonight or tomorrow, depending on whether or not I have Bible study.

Found this from the Marquette Scout site. They say they offer a DVD of the game, btu I can’t find it. I’m guessing you have to have a Scout subscription?

They also give a brief summary of the last few plays of the game.

No issue on this game, you can get the DVD on the NCAA website.

Here’s all our games available, if you wish to order one:

Unfortunately, all 3 of the DVDs that are available are losses…

YES

This is the first 20 minutes of the game and it SHOULD work. Once I get confirmation that it does, I’ll put up the rest.
