In 1976, George Blanda played his final game, closing a 27-year career that spanned four decades.
Also, in 1984, Adrian Dantley hit 28 free throws in a game to equal Wilt Chamberlain’s mark.
And in 2012, West Virginia beat Clemson 70-33 to set the record for most points scored in a bowl game. That mark was equaled in 2018 by Army.
