By all accounts, the 1971-72 campaign was a banner season for the
Florida State Seminoles. The team won a school-record 27 games and
advanced to the NCAA Tournament championship, falling to John Wooden and
his vaunted UCLA Bruins, 81-76. Led by All-American forward Ron King,
the Seminoles eclipsed the 100-point mark seven times that year,
including a 134-65 home win over Valdosta State. In the NCAAs, they beat
traditional powerhouses Kentucky and North Carolina on their way to the
title game against the Bruins.
But they didn’t last 10 minutes with the Hawaii Rainbows.

brawl follows Khabib's win over McGregor
LAS VEGAS – A bout that was made when Conor McGregor attacked a bus ended with lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov
leaping over the Octagon at T-Mobile Arena after a brilliant
performance in the main event of UFC 229 and brawling with Dillon Danis,
a member of McGregor’s team, at cageside.
Nurmagomedov submitted McGregor with a rear naked choke at 3:03 of the fourth before a melee broke out at cageside.
According to UFC broadcaster Joe Rogan, Danis was taunting
Nurmagomedov from cageside, though Rogan couldn’t hear what Danis said.
A huge scrum of people got
together near the Octagon, including police officers, members of both
teams and members of the Nevada Athletic Commission. It was against the
fence where fans were seated. Nurmagomedov and Danis exchanged punches
as people attempted to separate them.
After the scrum was broken up
after about 10 minutes, UFC president Dana White said to Nurmagomedov in
the cage, “People are going to get arrested tonight.” Nurmagomedov
responded, “Put me in jail. No problem.”
White said to Nurmagomedov, “This is what I believe: If I put this
belt on you, everybody’s going to start throwing s–t into the Octagon.”
Not long after Nurmagomedov went after Danis, a man in a black T-shirt got into the Octagon and threw a least one punch at McGregor. Then, a man in a red T-shirt jumped over the cage and landed four punches on McGregor. It did not appear that McGregor ever left the cage. According to White, three members of Nurmagomedov’s team were arrested.
