I've always been curious about that Bradley vs LaSalle title game. How did the game go? recap from those in attendance (anyone?) boxscore?

I have to believe that Peoria and the whole BU community was going crazy!

The whole town was basketball crazy in those days. Of course, some of us still are. BU's record wasn't that good that season, but teams were picked different then. Don't remember how. Believe the game was also the first NCAA championship game televised.
