Has it ever happened to JB? The last team that I can recall having that shot was Georgetown in our final Big East season ... and we beat them in the BET.

When I saw this thread title, Pitt jumped into my mind. But with the twice in 1 season thing, you have given me added hope!!

I think the fact that it isn't thug style Pitt were playing Should also give you added hope. The biggest reason we usually lose multiple times to a team is Because we have absolutely no offense. UNC hasn't been able to shut our offense down like Pitt does every single game. We have a punchers chance in this game just like the other two this season.. That's all that matters.

Another reason why I like our chances is because how well we have been playing late in games. That was usually our biggest Achilles heel this season. The last 5 minutes. Also the added fact that were playing with house money. And Roy Williams &Co are the big 9 pt favorite.

The OP question is, I think, have we ever lost three times to two different teams in a season. It would happen if we lose to UNC on Saturday. I can't remember a time, but the board historians will know.
I don't think any team has lost 2 teams 3 times in one year.
Maryland 2001 was the closest I could find
1-3 vs. Duke and 0-2 vs. UNC
Providence 1987
went 2-2 vs. Georgetown and 0-3 vs. Syracuse
Wisconsin in 2000 lost to Michigan State 4 times in one year. 2 twice in the regular season, Big Ten tournament, and Final Four.
