ORU vs Oregon, 1977 NIT, 1st half.m4v

Vintage video of 1977 NIT first round match-up between Oral Roberts University and University of Oregon. ORU's Anthony Roberts' 65 points the most ever scored by an individual player in NCAA Division-1 postseason game, but Oregon's all-everything Greg Ballard counters with 42 points of his own in 90-89 win for the Ducks. Entire first half of live broadcast from Tulsa, with Mack Creager on play-by-play and Jack Campbell on color.

That's really cool. I was a 15-year-old watching the game from the stands - unbelievable game. Check back in a month or so - will probably have it up there by then.

Great Regional Nit Final. Sensational 1st half. Would love to see the 2nd half.

@biggiesmall57 Working on it - could be a couple of months. Not easy to get these old 3/4" video tapes converted to digital!

Thanks you so much for responding. I truly understand and appreciate that you are able to help. I was number 50 for Oregon in this game. Kelvin Small. And this is the first footage that Ive ever seen of me competing for my University. So surely you can appreciate the eagerness and anticipation.

Kind regards,

Kelvin
