So we get this crazy 176-175 game between the Clippers and the Kings last night. Got me curious what's the highest scoring game we've ever been in, the most points we've ever scored in a game, and the most points we've ever given up in a game?

If we can manage to play Tennessee in the SEC tournament, they might can hang about 135 on us.

I don’t know where this falls for the history of the team but Nov 27 2009
USC 97 vs Jacksonville 93

It was “the highest-scoring game in Colonial Life Arena’s nine-year history” at the time. I don’t think they’ve had a higher combined scoring game since. I could be wrong though.

I was at the 79-80 Kentucky vs USC game.......we lost 126-81. Complete embarrassment. I believe that was Sam Bowie FR year. It was also Frank McGuire's last year.
