Yes and Yes.   Newborn in 1962 so don't remember that one - but I very clearly remember listening to Kent call that 1982 game at Missouri.   Was a student at NU then.    That was before Dave Hoppen - but did have some key members (Greg Downing most prominently) of the NIT Final Four team a couple years later.    Most interesting thing I always say about that 1982 team is how we had a starting center on that team that couldn't dunk - Lenard Johnson.    Remember sitting in the stands at home games that year and Jaime Williams from the football team would be giving Lenard a hard time about it.   Of course the backup center Terry Smith (who was also just 6-6) was a great dunker.   Downing was too - seemed like once every game Moe would have a designed play to get Downing an alley-oop dunk.
