An odd thread, but what are Uconn losses you will never forget?
Syracuse 127 Uconn 117 in 6 overtimes will top the list for most, I am sure. I could not even get angry, it was just so epic.
UCLA 102 Uconn 96 - A shoot out in the mid 1990s. A classic game, even though Uconn was on the losing end, it was no shame losing to them.
Ole Miss 60 Uconn 55 - This team was stacked, one of the hardest losses to take, which is why I will never forget. I think many people had Uconn in the final 4, so hard score to see.
Florida 69 Uconn 60 OT - Another very hard loss to take. One of the first games I watched as a fan, but I never left after that.
Gmason over Uconn in overtime 86-84. Many people thought this Uconn team had the talent to make a title run or at least make the final 4. Those dreams were ended a little too short. I think this 2006 team had more talent than 2011 and 2014 but less heart. Much less heart. This was very painful.
San Diego 70 Uconn 69. One of the very few times Uconn lost in the first round under Calhoun and for that, one that will be hard to forget.
In 1999 when the cuse stomped Uconn, I do not recall the score, but it was when Uconn had two short term injuries. For some reason I felt calm after that, I felt like Uconn was going to come back with a vengeance! A 70-59 win over Stanford soon after, on the road no less, would prove that and a 62-48 win over MSU.
edit: I think that cuse game was 59-42
). I remember all of the above except 1990, I've only seen replays of the Duke game. Those losses, all the way up to George Mason, stung, but I think after winning our last two titles, those losses don't come to mind as much.
