Show Notes
On March 26, 1979, the University of Utahs Special Events Center hosted a historic NCAA championship game between Michigan State and Indiana State. Magic Johnson led Michigan State to a victory, marking a turning point in college basketballs popularity. The game, which drew the largest TV audience in tournament history, was part of a rare Utah sweep in the NCAA field. The Huntsman Center, now the venue, may soon be relocated or torn down, but the memories from that epic showdown continue to keep the legacy alive.
