The moneyline was +2, 200. You could have dropped $100, and bought a house with it.

Even Buster Douglas was only a 42-1 underdog in February of 1990.

2, 200 to one ........ wow.

It’s not 2,200 to 1, it’s 22 to 1.

OK.

I thought that the poster that I was responding to presented it as being it was 2,200 to 1, because he stated that you could have bought a house with the winnings if you had bet $100 on it (which would have been $220,000.)

If the odds were only 22 to 1, then you couldn't buy a house from the winnings from a $100 bet on that, as he suggested.

Clayton Custer's shot that bounced off the rim, high in the air, and eventually into the basket to win the game for Loyola-Chicago was very reminiscent of when Allan Houston made an almost identical shot against the Miami Heat in the 5th and deciding game of their 1999 playoffs series. The Knicks made it all the way to the NBA Finals that year. If Houston had not made that shot, the Knicks would have bowed out long before they did.

Now, Custer's Loyola-Chicago team is in the Sweet Sixteen for the first time in 33 years. It was 1985 when they last made it that far, and they lost to Patrick Ewing's Georgetown Hoyas that year.

Haha.  They talked about that with Candace Parker in the post game.
