Probably our worst loss in the Dance

[Skiblets]

Shooting percentage. Paper defense. Free throws. Team looked tight. Major disappointment

Iowa State in 2012 was a complete no-show from the opening tip.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Iowa State wasn’t even that long ago.

9 years????

Really? Did you forget what happened in 06?

This was the worst loss.

 

[ASweet3781]

Iowa State in 2012 was a complete no-show from the opening tip.

That team was a dysfunctional mess all season and lost in reliably predictable fashion.

Might not have been alive yet

ding ding ding.

Our 2012 team was infinitely more talented than this one. They just didn't give a crap. They had Napier, Lamb, and Drummond...and lost to Iowa State.

 

[Excalibur]

That team was a dysfunctional mess all season and lost in reliably predictable fashion.

But in terms of under-performing it’s talent level? By far the biggest disappointment.

 

[JakeTheDog]

Nah. Has to be the George Mason loss. Of course I picked UConn to win it all this year but if we are being realistic this team probably met expectations. Should we have won? Yes. But we are still trending upwards as a program.

In an elite 8 game?

 

[Skiblets]

Got out toughed. That never used to happen

 

[traitor71]

Losing to San Diego was one that I always felt was pretty bad.

 

[BugsyCT]

Ohio State, George Mason, San Diego, Iowa State, Kansas.

We've seen worse than this.

 

[navery12]

I've only been a fan since 2013 and even I know this wasn't the worst loss

Not even close.

 

[EnochRoot]

The George Mason game was the worst loss in UConn MBB history, period.

 

[August_West]

Losing to San Diego was one that I always felt was pretty bad.

That was the one. Except that AJ tore his ACL in first half.

Wrong

 

[EnochRoot]

I mean, it shocked the sports world, and put a commuter school on the map.

 

[Kitaman]

I disagree, we were like virgins playing for the first time. The inexperience showed.

You need a floor leader, the ability to adjust in game, upperclassmen contributing and staying confident in spite of the situation. We looked lost at times.

This was the expected outcome but we all were blind.

Now that we've got that out the way our returnees will be much better, hungry and hopefully united under one goal.

 

[Durks07]

In an elite 8 game?

That loss was worse. Best team in the country lost to a mid major.

 

[Jay-Bone]

I'm just happy we got in. It was nice to momentarily feel relevant again. 7 was waaaayyyy too generous. We got smoked by PC and lost to SJU and SH. Our best winwas USC in like Mobley's third game ever. The Big East sucked save Villanova. The Big Ten was a juggernaut. Maryland was a tough draw, but we certainly didn't deserve better.

 

[AZHuskiePop]

In OT

 

[EnochRoot]

Wrong

No, I'm not. UConn was one of the favorites to win it all.

 

[businesslawyer]

God, it wasn’t the loss to San Diego. When your point guard blows his knee out during a game, it’s hardly shocking that college players weren’t ready for it emotionally or schematically.

And tonight wasn't???
