Perfection doesn't happen by accident.
Rewind to '75 and the story of Indiana's 1976 season. A late-year broken arm put Scott May on the shelf, and with him went the championship dream. One loss. That was it. The fuse was lit.
May returned for '76 next to Quinn Buckner, Kent Benson, Tom Abernethy and Bobby Wilkerson. This team wasn't chasing redemption alone. It was chasing perfection.
Coach Bob Knight's Hoosiers started at No. 1 and stayed there. Wire-to-wire. No slips. No doubts. Just wins.
St. John's, Alabama and Marquette fell in the NCAA Tournament, then UCLA in the Final Four, then conference rival Michigan in the title game.
86–68. Season over.
Undefeated. Untouchable. Immortal.
Final record: 32–0. The program's third national title, and the last perfect season in college basketball history.
“We were special because of one man, Bob Knight. For all of us, the biggest part was seeing the smile on Coach Knight’s face.” -Quinn Buckner
