No worse feeling in sports than being on the cusp of a major upset and seeing it slip away. In losses there are always woulda coulda's that potentially change the outcome. Dungey said it best "we didn't execute". As a fan, I am deflated and kinda ornery as it seemed like the stars aligned, as everything we needed to happen to win, did. Just came down to execution when it mattered most. We sputtered both times. Sucks. Have to tell myself that no matter how I feel, the players feel it waaaaay more than me... Hope the players don't get too down.

Actually it's the first time in a long time, I let myself get emotionally into the game, wrong day to do  that, lol. In football it's worse because we have to wait till next week in order to truly put this one behind us, and some haunt us for many many moons (games mentioned above, and i'll add Oklahoma to that list). Basketball is a lot easier to move on from...

My hope is this unites the team and this loss doesn't snowball to derail the season. It could really go either way, in my mind.
