I normally would not urge you to watch the Hoosiers, but this has the potential to be too much fun.

The IU-MSU game on ESPN on Saturday promises to be a whole lot of fun. When else will you get to see Dick Vitale wearing horn-rimmed glasses and a major college coach wearing a huge afro?

There will be vintage uniforms, old TV graphics and 1979 concession prices. Commentators Dan Shulman, Dick Vitale and Doris Burke will wear clothes from the era. Some may think Vitale won’t look any different, but the veteran broadcaster plans to wear a 1979-style blazer and horned-rimmed glasses.

IU fans may be in for a treat when it comes to their coach. Mike Davis said Thursday that he plans to wear a red sports coat, plaid pants, stacked heels — and an Afro.
