I have always wondered why they never play some clips of this game during this time of year when they are showing highlights of past tournys.

It's always been my guess that it was because the game was on ESPN. That was back in the day when ESPN televised first round games. If it would have been a CBS covered game we may see it more.

Not one of the 25 greatest upsets in tournament history

If anyone has the game and could upload a couple of highlights or at least the end to YouTube, that would be amazing. I don't think I've seen any of it for many years.

I have the entire game on VHS. If I can find it. If I try to have someone convert it to DVD will I have a problem with copyright? Anyone know? I would never sell copies, but I'd certainly give some away.

I think there would be a copyright problem. You might find a video service that won't care, however, considering it's a fifteen year old game nobody is thinking about but us.

Thanks. Today's a good day to find it and check the yellow pages. Sorry, it's a 19 yr old game. Gawd that was a long time ago, and I was there. What a gas.

What Ford didn't love was how his lone season at Mizzou ended. The Tigers lost their final three games, dropping a 31-point decision at Notre Dame in a regular season finale, losing to eighth-seeded Colorado in the first round of the Big 12 Tournament and suffering an upset loss to Northern Iowa in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

Ford was asked if he still has a dislike for Maurice Newby.

"Who?" Ford said.

Ford was reminded that Newby was the Northern Iowa player who checked into the NCAA Tournament game with 10 seconds left and hoisted a 3-point bomb that knocked Missouri off the bracket.

"Oh, the halfcourt guy," Ford said. "The shot he made was almost halfcourt. That was kind of typical of the way our season was ending at that point."

Newby's shot became a parting shot for Ford and Missouri. It has been this long since Ford returned: He said he has never been in Missouri's new arena (it opened in 2004) and he asked reporters if the old arena (Hearnes Center) is still standing. It is.

"I would like to go visit," Ford said. "I would like to take a walk Friday night and just walk around a little bit."

Ford should love Columbia. He never lost a game there. But will Columbia love him?

Didn't realize that Travis Ford played for that Missouri team.

Travis Ford the coach at OSU? He must have transferred to kentucky?

I guess that makes him 0-2 against UNI as a coach and a player.

It's been up on youtube for awhile (the last shot). Just search for northern iowa basketball.

I have a combo VHS player and DVD burner and I converted the game to DVD with no problem.
