They won the championship that night LOL

Thanks for posting

Man I remember that night. You couldn't hear anything the crowd went so wild. My favorite part was the pregame show where they brought out the paper mache shark and harpooned it, then ran it up into the rafters.

this is the only trace of Sam Crawford on the internet.....he had profiles on ESPN, SI, etc....was a big deal for a Minute...

This is a bittersweet game/night. Even a rivalry won't get those upper seats filled these days.

I live in Vegas, but I really liked this New Mexico State team. I thought they could have done some damage in the tournament that year, got a real tough draw having to play Loyola Marymount right out of the gate. Nobody was beating LMU that night.

The macho guitar densply support because arch nutritionally record plus a nice cauliflower. acoustic, deranged banker

I remember the great midwest conference later became conference USA I think there was like 350 teams in it

Fluckey for 3!

Rick Fluckey - that's my dad!

I was there as well. Best live sports moment of my life!

I had graduated in 1987 but made the trip down from Albuquerque to see this historic event. Lost my voice and then had to contain myself to get some quotes for the Albuquerque Tribune. So many great games in the Pan Am in the 80s and early 90s but this one plus the great run in 1992 are memories I will always treasure.

I love Unlv 1989-91 teams. This was when college basketball was special! My friends ask me to go out tonight.NA. I got a beer and watch old Unlv games. Go rebels!

UNLV could care less who won that game! 2 words; National Champions! >:)

I was there too...that was me running the top "game" camera (wide shot). Loved those late espn games, especially the unlv vs nmsu games

I was there for that one, as well. Lived in the Alumni Dorms next to Reggie Jordan and Ron Pitzi. Always good to us...

I was there! That was my freshmen year at NMSU. Probably one of the best moments of my young adult life! It was especially exciting to see UNLV go on to win the NCAA championships that year. RIP Tark, thanks for the memories.

I watched this game from home. We had made a huge party out of it! Game was awesome from start to finish. I remember tons of high 5s, hugs laughing, and uncontrollable jumping!!! I was 13 years old it was an amazing win for the team. Coach Macarthy put together an incredible team playing an style of basketball. Heck dickie V even came to what he called the pandemonium center...The team was awesome, Las Cruces was awesome. If you're to young to remember those days think Reggie Theus days times 10. I pray we will be back there soon

wow. i remember watching this game on espn. i was only 13 at the time and told myself that i was definitely going to be an AGGIE! good times since then.

With all the great players DePaul had over the years, its crazy that if they don't have a new on-campus facility, then they should at least use the United Center for their games (I know they've used it several times throughout the 90s when it first opened). I sure do hope they become a national power again. They've had way too much tradition not to be one.

Tark the Shark! Those guys could play full-court man from the locker room. Stacey and Greg were awesome!

I was at this game with my dad and I was in second grade. That night was electrick! I can remember it like it was yesterday, believe it or not but all the Aggie games were packed like that when Neil was there!!!!!!!!!!!

I was at

I was there underneath the north basket. Me and my Aggie Buds, Nick & Jeff. We didn't miss an Aggie game from 1986-1992. This game was THE GAME. We waited until 10:00 to be let in, then everyone ran to get the best seats possible. That was such a great time. I don't care what happened afterwards, Coach McCarthy brought us some serious basketball!

3:40 Haha! Yeah! My Homey Reggie Jordan! Real talk, Reggie is a soldier on that hoop court. Had enough game to make it into the NBA and just retired from the International Leagues a 2 or 3 years back. Big up Reg! NMSU was FULLY REPPED by Chi Town at this time! You got some Hoopers comin' out the ILL STATE!

This was a game to remember. I saw it live on ESPN - McCarthy had some good teams at NMSU

Was there such thing as a power conference or a mid major during those times of college hoops? I don't think anyone cared what is a power conference or midmajor back then. College basketball was just college basketball.

Watching sports in the West Coast is so much better year round.

I saw this game. UNLV was as big as the Lakers at this point and time. Everybody had it in for the Runnin' Rebels. I actually thought UNLV won this game but they didn't. ESPN had went to that Big Monday format where they featured a West Coast game at 11 o'clock. There were always a lot of tired people back East when the Reb's played and I was one of them! I remember them playing agains Santa Barbara, Pepperdine and schools like that. We haven't seen this since those day's. Wow!

Big West at that time was SO underrated....
