A few notes on the season

[GOAT]

As many of you remember the southern conference was the first conference to use the 3 point shot before it was adopted by the NCAA. It started with the 1980-81 season. Attempted 3 point shots by season for Furman.
80-81---48
81-82---36
82-83---9
83-84---could not find
2017-2018----950

The game has changed.
Trivia- Who made the first 3 point basket and what school did he play for?

Chattanooga had the earliest tip time that day at 5 p.m., but when WCU found about this they moved their tip time from 6 p.m. to 4:30 secretly in order to have this unique footnote in CBB history.
