Remember 1982...Top 10 Idaho!

[ordigger]

The Vandals came to Missoula one cold January night. At the time they were 16-0, and I believe ranked #6 in the nation. The Griz beat them on a tip in at the buzzer.

So we have beaten a top 10 team before. Of course that was at home, and not in the NCAA tournament, but things do happen.

Anyone remember who made that last second tip in?? Hint.....Derek Selvig's dad. Quite a game back in the day when Dahlberg and The Pit were both among toughest places in nation to play. Deja vu all over again tonight baby.

I remember a monster dunk by Derrick Pope - at least I think I do. I had a few drinks by that point in the game. Yeah - the Zoo was a great place back in the day. Shame the Dahlberg refurbish destroyed it.

I believe the Vandals lost twice that season... were we the first to put an L on the them? If my fading memory serves me right, Idaho's other loss was a nail-biter to Notre Dame in South Bend on national tv. I remember watching it. I think they were ranked as high as 3rd or 4th in the country at one time. They made it to the Sweet 16 and got knocked out by Oregon St.
