UCLA with Alcinder isn't even the best UCLA team. The UCLA teams with Walton were better. The college basketball game has changed so much since those days. There's shot clocks, three point shots, at large tourney births, illiterate niggers going to college, etc. that were not around then. It takes more than just one great player to win a tournament now. Those Jabbar teams had Jabbar and nobody else. Even the University of San Francisco teams had Bill Russell & K.C. Jones. The Walton teams also had Henry Bibby, jamaal Wilkes, and Nater. They were are force for their time, moreso the the 1968 team.
