While 49ers are beating Bengals in Super Bowl, Gophers are dismantling Hoosiers before 16,636 in Barn. Willie Burton scores 22 and a 6'5" guard from Chicago adds 17 for Minnesota. Undrafted out of college, he will go on to play 3 seasons in the NBA before launching an extremely successful career as a motivational speaker. Can you name him?
Bonus Question- A 6'7" shooting guard/small forward scores 24 for Indiana. When he is finished he will be the all-time Big 10 scoring leader and go on to be the 6th overall pick in the NBA draft. His 13 year career will include 6 seasons with Washington. Can you name him?
