The Patriots may have failed in their quest for a milestone, but San Francisco head coach Eddie Sutton put down the bottle and was finally able to get his 800th victory in thrilling fashion after his team came back from a 19 point second half deficit to beat Pepperdine, which was not burnt to the ground during the California wildfires, 85-82 in Malibu.
No longer will we mark the end of Sutton's career with memories of him getting toasted and crashing into things. Now we will replace that by remembering him in the same breath as Dean Smith, Adolph Rupp, and Bobby Knight (who we already compared him to anyway). So congrats Eddie, you earned this. Now go have a drink and celebrate.
