The NCAA men's basketball tournament is one of the iconic events in
American sports. In this fast-paced, in-depth account, J. Samuel
Walker and Randy Roberts identify the 1973-74 season as pivotal in
the making of this now legendary postseason tournament. In an era
when only one team per conference could compete, the dramatic
defeat of coach John Wooden's UCLA Bruins by the North Carolina
State Wolfpack ended a decade of the Bruins' dominance, fueled
unprecedented national attention, and prompted the NCAA to expand
the tournament field to a wider range of teams. Walker and Roberts
provide a richly detailed chronicle of the games that made the
season so memorable and uncover the behind-the-scenes maneuvering
that set the stage for the celebrated spectacle that now fixes the
nation's attention every March.
