Man that was a great effort against what was arguably Bobby’s second most talented team (behind 76 squad). They went 17-1 in the Big 10 while beating Michigan’s fab five twice. However, Kansas had their number that year and beat them twice.
After looking back at that Xavier team, I forgot how talented they were. 4 future NBA players in Grant, Williams, Hawkins, and Larry Sykes (ok just one game for the Celtics but still counts). Think this might be close to contradicting my statement I said about the 1990 team a few days ago lol.

The audio is from the IU radio broadcast, not the TV broadcast. The announcer is Don Fisher, who has been broadcasting IU games forever.
Maybe not #1, but worth a mention is Mark Lyons at the end of the Round of 32 game against Lehigh. Not just for the dunk, but also how it rankled the "be a good sport and run out the clock" crowd.

I say the Aaron Williams baseline dunk against IU in 2nd round NCAA was amazing.
