PrintBefore we dive back into ZouDave's videos, here's another video treat. It has been brought to my attention that the 1972 Mizzou highlight video (narrated by Jack Buck!) has been posted to YouTube by one of our RMN posters (Tigerborn), and I felt it deserved a stand-alone post. This is fantastic stuff.
As a refresher, first go read the 1972 History piece again from last summer: Part One, Part Two, Part Three. This was an up-and-down season, to say the least, with a 62-0 loss to Nebraska (hilariously glossed over entirely in this video--this video is about the good moments) followed by a shocking 30-26 win over Notre Dame. Mizzou made the Fiesta Bowl one season after going 1-10 in Al Onofrio's first year. Anyway, here are the two parts of the video. Enjoy.

thank you, tigerborn
for posting to youtube, and to bill for bringing it over here. the video is great, but the smooth, cool voice of jack buck is the true attraction. simply the greatest sportscaster of all time. i’m a biased cards fan, but summers just aren’t quite the same without jack’s calling of the cards.

Threadkiller-
My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it. Yes, I too, remember listening to Jack Buck, as well as Harry Caray, those summer nights. Greatest baseball announcing duo in history!
another place for classic games
tv4u.com
There’s some classic basketball and football games there—complete with classic commercials! From the home page, go to “sports” in the left column and then classic basketball or football in the right column, then search.
They have a couple of old school Mizzou hoops games: 1980 vs. Nebraska (Larry Drew’s senior year, Stipo’s a freshman) & 1982 vs. Georgetown
Under “football” they have the 1979 Hall of Fame Bowl (vs. South Carolina) & 1981 Tangerine Bowl (vs. Southern Miss).
There’s also a bunch of OU/NU games dating back to the 60s in here.
Why the hell would ND go for 2
when they were down 4? You go for 2 and fail, you have to get a TD, you go for 1, you can tie with a FG.
Was the thinking maybe so much different when ties were possible, because ND figured a tie was almost as bad as a loss?
