We beat NW state 25-21 or so at their house using slow down. Miserable game to listen to. Bo held to fewest points of his career. They did the slow part.

Love Elfrid but I would put Winkler with Toney. Winkler could drive to basket, hit from outside, pass and play point. Of course, Toney could do same. And both played defense. But Payton was really good. I prefer era teams. Game is so different now. Dean Church was as good a pure shooter as we have ever had and just deadly at free throw line. But different era. Our center was 6’4”.
Have a friend that went to NSU and attended that game. He brings it up every once in awhile, Cajuns were the best college team he saw back then. Said the NSU crowd was pumped at half and thought they had the game won. But as it was put to me, "they made us (NSU) look like the Washington Generals the second half". Cajuns played keep away just like them the second half...a testimony to how good they were.
My first games to attend was the first year back post probation. Was that the 74-75 team? Pascal Mitchell, Jerry Mitchell, Calvin Fils, Baloo Johnson and a few others.
Strange because I saw him play. Athletic network shows him on the team from 74-78.
Ps- we only didn’t have a team for the 73-74 season. The staff was allowed to have a team the 2nd year of probation. I think they could only scrimmage.
