Each day (Mon-Fri) will have 4 games and the polls will be open for 48 hours. I will try to post the new day’s games at noon EST.

In another matchup of teams one year apart, the 1980 takes on the 1981. In a shout-out to HTD, the 1981 team lost Butch Carter and Mike Woodson while only adding Craig Bardo and Mike LaFave, but was able to play better than their predecessors when it mattered most winning the 1981 Championship.

In the first game, '73 coach Bob Knight forbid the team from attempting any 3 pointers during the game after watching freshman Quinn Buckner air-ball 4 straight in practice behind the unfamiliar line.  Unfortunately, that came back to bite him as Jay Edwards's 8 three pointers, including the last second game winner, were supported by Joe Hillman's 3 three pointers.  The 33 point difference behind the arc was just enough as '89 with the mild upset by a score of 76-75.
