New Mexico State beat #7 UNLV 83-82 in Las Cruces on ESPN Big Monday. NMSU went on to win the Big West Conference and get the #6 seed in the NCAA Tournament
I love Unlv 1989-91 teams. This was when college basketball was special! My friends ask me to go out tonight.NA. I got a beer and watch old Unlv games. Go rebels!
I saw this game. UNLV was as big as the Lakers at this point and time. Everybody had it in for the Runnin' Rebels. I actually thought UNLV won this game but they didn't. ESPN had went to that Big Monday format where they featured a West Coast game at 11 o'clock. There were always a lot of tired people back East when the Reb's played and I was one of them! I remember them playing agains Santa Barbara, Pepperdine and schools like that. We haven't seen this since those day's. Wow!
3:40 Haha! Yeah! My Homey Reggie Jordan! Real talk, Reggie is a soldier on that hoop court. Had enough game to make it into the NBA and just retired from the International Leagues a 2 or 3 years back. Big up Reg! NMSU was FULLY REPPED by Chi Town at this time! You got some Hoopers comin' out the ILL STATE!
Was there such thing as a power conference or a mid major during those times of college hoops? I don't think anyone cared what is a power conference or midmajor back then. College basketball was just college basketball.
Barry Tompkins, one of the greatest basketball and boxing play by play announcers.
And Quinn Buckner one of the worst

Tark the Shark! Those guys could play full-court man from the locker room. Stacey and Greg were awesome!
Big West at that time was SO underrated....
Watching sports in the West Coast is so much better year round.
