Did BYU deserve to win the 1984 National Championship?, the River City Relay, and the Longest College BBall Game - This DiSH for Dec. 21

In 1984, BYU beat a 6-5 Michigan team in the Holiday Bowl to finish the year as the only undefeated team in Division I-A. But they didn't really beat anybody and an error filled win over an average Wolverine team had many questioning if the Cougars deserved to be crowned National Champions.

In 2003, the New Orleans Saints scored on a final second, lateral filled play but John Carney missed the game tying PAT and the Saints lost and missed out on the playoffs.

In 1891, James Naismith divided a group of 18 boys into two teams of 9 players and played the world's first game of Basketball.

In 1981, Cincinnati and Bradley played in a 7 OT thriller in the longest collegiate basketball.
