You are comparing apples to oranges. BG has always coached in an era where the NCAA tournament consisted of 64/65 teams a year.
In 1974, the NCAA tournament consisted of 32 teams and was the first year that more than 1 team could come from the same conference. The field was expanded to 40 in 1979. It was expanded to 48 in 1980 and 53 in 1983. It was not expanded to 64 teams until 1985.
