1973 NCAA Final - MSU vs UCLA

This is the radio broadcast only. Wish I had game pictures. Since YouTube videos are limited to 10 minutes, here is 10 minutes of the first half action from the Memphis State-UCLA NCAA Final from 1973. Jack Eaton is doing the play-by-play from the radio broadcast on WMC which I recorded live. The starting 5 for MSU were Larry Finch, Larry Kenon, Ronnie Robinson, Billy Buford and Bill Laurie coached by Gene Bartow. For UCLA it was Bill Walton, Larry Hollyfield, Keith Wilkes, Larry Farmer, and Greg Lee coached by John Wooden. UCLA pulled ahead in the second half but the first half was exciting! Also playing in this game for Memphis State was Bill Cook (Billy the Kid). The pictures in this video are not from this game.
