This is, without question, one of my most favorite memories of the NCAA tournament

I remember this game, I was a senior in highschool watching march madness. Great game

The crazy thing for me (I'm a UNI fan), is that this was the Panthers first tournament game in history.

I had never seen this game. I was in school at the time. But I followed Missouri closely that year. So many emotions. Missouri had been ranked 1 earlier that season and slumped terribly at the end of the season. Norm Stewart teams always peaked too early. Not sure what was going on with Peeler here - but Northern Iowa played great. They sunk everything. Seems like Doug Smith had foul trouble every game he played in. Officiating was terrible but not one sided. They were terrible all around, constantly blowing the whistle. What a painful game to watch with so many fouls and charges. ridiculous. It was nice to see Travis Ford in there. But really cool game with amazing last shot.

I remember laying on my Parent's bed at 12yrs old. Watching this.

Seems like just yesterday.

Awesome!

“He hadn’t played in 10 minutes!”

APeeler was a no show. Peeler just plays 29% of his capabilities? Mizz wins by 7-9pts

I sat in the front row, slightly to the right of NIU's bench. I was wearing a black Mizzou bball jersey, white undershirt, and lime green hat (yes, it was 1990, so cut me some slack for the fashion choices). I was constantly berating the NIU team during every timeout huddle. Just a complete pain in the ass. I'm getting annoyed at myself just watching this game on replay. So, anyway, when NIU hits that game winning 3, a bunch of bench guys from their team ran over to me and pointed at me in glee. Such is the rare experience when one's team loses in shocking fashion and the other team personally rubs it in one's face. haha

+Alex S. What's with Northern Iowa and 3-pointers?

Lol..As a Kansas Jayhawks fan? F'ing IRONY everywhere! Mizz playing Northern Iowa. Playing at VCU. - 2010. #1Kansas loses to #9No Iowa in Rd32. - 2011. #1Kansas loses to #11VCU in Elite8. (KU literally not just gave away another FF appearance, but that 2011 FF was so extremely weak due upsets. #1KU survives this gm? Most likely walks to a National Title.)

2010 and 2011 tourney games are the most inexcusable losses of the Self era.

2003 National Title game vs Cuse? My 2nd Worst L as a Kansas Jayhawks fan. We lost by 3... We MISSED 18 Free Throws... (We were without PF Wayne Simien 15ppg/7rpg, injury. Even with 18 MISSED Free Throws? We win with him.)

I did a watch-along podcast to this game: soundcloud.com/foroldmissouri/missouri-northern-iowa-basketball-1990-ncaa-first-round
