Message: [QUOTE="Horsebrnhil, post: 5318741, member: 14064"] You do understand that the New England, metropolitan NY-Philly, WAS college basketball then. The south was Kentucky, UNC, Midwest was Cincinnati, Ohio State, Kansas, Indiana. There were no real powers in southwest in 60's, and even 70's. The big deal far west was UCLA, and that was it. The 2 big basketball tournaments, that showcased schools were the Holiday Festival, and NIT. Both held in the Mecca of college basketball, Madison Square Garden. So in essence your rationale about opponents from northeast and New England fails to take into account how good eastern basketball was in the 50's into the 70's. [/QUOTE]
