Best College Player You've Seen vs MU?

[MarquetteMike1977]

Yeah, I knew that. Was just having some fun.

We played them in the Sweet 16 my freshman year (March 1979). Had an 8-point lead when Worthen just barely overthrew an open Toone on what would have been a breakaway dunk for a double-digit lead. Marquette probably would have then gone into its version of a stall, which was quite effective back in those pre-shot-clock days. But DePaul came right back and scored, eventually took the lead, and held on to win by 6. Aguirre didn't even score 20, IIRC.

Am happy am not the only one who remembers that play vividly and as the turning point.
