Can't remember the exact year but it was LSU/KY is the CowBarn. Pete goes for 60 and Issel had 58, or close to that. Incredible game that had many lead changes. This KY team was possibly their best ever, and Pete almost singlehandily beat them. I think LSU lost by 2-3 pts. I saw all of Pete's home games including the Fr/Varsity game that had about 50 people in the barn along with me....and that KY/LSU stands out as one of the greatest memories. What a wild experience!

I remember that game well, as LSU hung tight until the bitter end, when Kentucky's strength wore us down. Kentucky ended up winning 121-105, but that's deceiving as the final margin was based on a lot of made free throws at the end.
Maravich had 64 points, his 2nd highest total as a Tiger. He made 69 in a loss @ Alabama 2 weeks earlier.
Dan Issel had 58 for that great Wildcat team, #1 in the polls. The Cats didn't win the NCAA Tourney that year, however; that was UCLA in the midst of their run of basketball championships.
