Just reading this thread.

Is Charles the lesser known brother of James, who invented basketball?

I knew it was Naismith got the wrong guy.

Little old Jimmy Shofner stopped Brown down close one on one, if I recall.

Chico blocked a PAT.

I love the old commentary and footage of the game. No TCU touchdowns shown. I cannot figure out why. All Syracuse TD's shown. Still enjoy seeing the pageantry and dress and culture of the day. I see my parents old pictures and see the same. Memories for me.

If Kern Tips wrote his own copy for this, he was an amazingly cliche-ridden hack, even for 1957...straining for metaphors that would be amusing....But it's interesting to listen to him, anyway....I suppose he had to develop that kind of delivery in the radio days to keep the listeners engaged....

I really don’t like everyone’s over-confidence in this thread.

Y’all are acting like we’re Kansas playing St. Bonaventure or something.

Let me remind you that this is basketball, in March, and we are TCU playing Syracuse.

Bump for all the idiots who thought Syracuse sucked and we should easily beat them because we were seeded higher.
