A reader of this blog informed me of his blog dedicated to the January 20, 1968 game between UCLA and the University of Houston. The matchup is known as the "Game of the Century," as it was the first nationally televised collegiate basketball game ever, and it matched the #1 ranked bruins led by lew alcindor against the #2 cougars led by elvin hayes. As we know too well, Houston prevailed in the game 71-69, ending UCLA's 47-game winning streak. Of course, the Bruins avenged their loss later in the year, beating the Cougars 101-69 in the Final Four en route to our fourth national title.
