<==== was at the game

If I remember correctly, game wasn't as close as the score. UNLV hit a couple of 3s in the last few seconds.

LSU beat UNLV twice in the Chris Jackon era, but they were not ranked #1 in either game. On 2/25/89, 18th ranked LSU defeated 20th ranked UNLV 88-87 @ the PMAC. The following season (89-90) #16 LSU defeated the 5th ranked Running Rebs 107-105 on 1/28/90. UNLV defeated LSU 76-55 in Nov of 91 after CJ left.

Correction to post above... LSU was ranked 20th & UNLV was ranked 18th on 2/25/89. I got it backwards...

i must be thinking about 90' then. i think UNLV lost maybe 2 games that season and won the NC.

starting five for UNLV:

stacey augmon, greg anthony, anderson hunt, george ackles, david butler.

larry johnson didn't play in that game, forgot if he was hurt or suspended.

could have sworn LJ played. think he was #4, wore an undershirt under his uniform and was a damn handful.

Also, i thought we started CJ, Shaq or Roberts, Vernel, Mo Williamson, and maybe Wayne Sims.

this was the 109-105 game. i think that was the score.

Loudest LSU sporting event i have ever been to, and the most fun sporting event to watch as wel.

Mike Hanson.....

i think i spelled his name wrong...Hansen seems more correct. I can't forget that guy. he reminded me of an Ewok. Hairy little dude that could hit the 3-ball. Transfer from UT-Martin i think. We played against them, he lit us up, and Dale got him to transfer.

I think its Hansen too and I seem to recall him on those late 80's/early 90's teams with CJ.
