Nothing has topped the excitement of being there to watch the ball go into the peach basket for the very first time. It was a pain getting it out, though.

I'd like to point out that seeing teams like Butler, Seton Hall, Gonzaga, Marquette, Indiana State, etc. in the finals just shows you how much better NCAA basketball is than football when the title only comes down to a handful of teams.

1982, even though I hated the result. Patrick Ewing, James Worthy and that Jordan chap. Ewing swatted the first five Carolina shots away, goaltending and all.
1983 was an epic but still a defensive game.
Amazing, the 1979 title game is STILL the highest rated CBB game ever, 40 years later. Because no one had seen Larry Bird. You had heard about him, seen highlights but no games until the Final Four. "He's the best player in college basketball and you've never seen him play. He's the hick from French Lick, Larry Bird and he plays for Indiana STATE, not Indiana". The '79 title game was like showing Bigfoot riding the LochNess Monster in the Bermuda Triangle. There was no ESPN, no CBS Sports, no internet. You got three to four CBB games a week and the networks weren't going to show Indiana State-West Texas A&M. The Game wasn't very good, though. Bird didn't have a good game at all.
