As dominating as Shaq was his LSU teams never beat an Arkansas team. Nolan always had a good gameplan against the Tigers.
nolan is one of the greatest that’s for sure
I watched this game live on TV. Great memories. Woo pig!
43 from Todd Day! He was so good
You can see my brother and I in the crowd at the 1:19:55 mark. I remember this game like it was yesterday.
Charles Barkley said Miller would have been a NBA all star if had only learned two words.
"I'm full"
Big O always played great against Shaq.
A local bar in Fayetteville named Jr's had a promotion every road game where they picked a player of the game. Any time the player of the game made a basket from the field, the price of draft been went down a nickle. Todd Day was POTG for this one. Jr's had to cap the price at $0.15. I think if they had kept going, they were going to have to pay us a nickle or so for every beer by the time the game ended.
Shaq' s free throw form was more fluid here.
WPS!!

1992
Coach Richardson blew three years with Day, Mayberry and Miller from playing too much small ball. Shepard should not have been on the floor. He was a DII player at best.
I agree, Shep wasn't much of an offensive threat, but he was an excellent defender. He was the defensive engine of that 92-93 team that went to the Sweet 16 (he was a senior along with Hawkins but, that team was led by Freshmen). I disagree with what you were saying about Richardson waisting 3 years playing small ball. Shep could play the point, which allowed Mayberry to play the 2. Also, they have the "33" on their jerseys for Clyde Fletcher, who was a reserve wing (6'7" and from Memphis as well). He suffered a season ending injury. That affected the depth and rotation, he was Day's primary back up. There always reasons things fall apart. Most players of the late 80s/early 90s couldn't play this style. Richardson recruitrd and played the guys that could play his style which very few Coaches were playing at that time.
A Final Four and Elite Eight aren't nothing. The Elite Eight team would have made it back-to-back Final Fours if Arlyn Bowers didn't get hurt in the regional final against Kansas. This 1991-92 season was very frustrating though. Day was suspended for the early part of the year and the team seemed to never really get in a rhythm all season long. They would go into Baton Rouge and Lexington and blow the doors off some really good teams then turn around and lose to mediocre at best Tennessee and Georgia teams. Still finished 26-8 for the year, but it was supposed to be national championship type team, not a second round exit to Memphis High.
@bitterbob30 EXACTLY my man.... outside of the 7 elite programs with multiple Nattys (Duke, UNC, Kansas, Florida, Villanova, UConn, Kentucky) in the last 30 years, all of the next level programs (Programs with 1 Natty in that time) have similar success....maybe with exception Michigan St. and Arizona. Pick any program since 90, Louisville, Syracuse, Memphis, Maryland, UCLA, they all have about the same type of success... You fellas are making it seem like they were a Creighton, Ole Miss, or Providence.... there are over 300 programs in D-I College Basketball 🏀.... and 95% of them would enjoy that run from 90-96. And would we have likes to see more? Of course! But things happen and at the end of the day, every season, only 1 team takes home the natty.... that fella in the original comment (Loften21) was off his rocker a bit.
