Move over Pitt 2007 you are no longer the worst loss ever at the Dome

I am going for a drive. I can’t face ppl right now.
I didn't think I could get as mad as I just got. I almost can't speak. I'm not kidding, I wouldn't be upset if we didn't go to the ACC tournament. What was Frank even doing on that side of the court when they pressed? And did we end the game with a time out?
 
I am still legit shocked I saw what I saw my 2 eyes.
How?

Yep in a year of awfulness this is by far the worst. Which is to say a lot.

I sort of knew it was going to happen but it reached a point where I said even they can’t blow this and then they did. I want to say the players play hard but then I rewatch the inbounds plays and no one is moving of fighting to get open.

Shocked, appalled and more angry than I should be at a team that wasn’t going anywhere anyway.

Watching this game reminded me of playing nba jam at the arcade when the computer basically didn’t let you get it to half court the last 20-30 seconds if you had the lead. It felt like something that would happen in a video game. Losing that lead was unacceptable, period .
 
Less motion at end of game results from 40" for marginal athletes.
Gassed, with no backups -debatable how much backups would have played anyway.

Sad way to see seniors go out.
Honestly what sucks is that will Jimmy and Buddy’s last game at the Dome and it’s just such a bad way to lose.
They don’t deserve that.
A non-losing season was honestly needed for them.

I just can’t see how JB can’t look at the roster for next year and realize it won’t be better. Tell the recruits they are released from their LOI and just let Wildhack find a new HC.

Next year we would have to play a charming soft nonconference schedule all Patriot, Ivy, MAAC, NEC teams to build enough wins for 20 game ACC schedule.

JW needs to make it known that he expects JB to use the portal to add talent and experience to the roster. It’s as simple as that. We must maximize the talent and can’t go into the season without a full roster.

"charming" LOL
-with a new Prince Charming?
 
Eh, this wasn't even the worst home loss of the season...Colgate takes the cake.

Some other doozies in seasons past:
Cleveland State
2014 vs BC
UNCC
Boatraced by Seton Hall in '11 and '98
Old Dominion
scoring < 40 vs Gtown in '13 and UVa in '19
crushed by a crap St John's squad in '16

Last game of the season with both Boeheim boys on Senior day and to lose a game we had won. Time, place and meaning- it's worse than any of the others.

This season was over long ago. The game was important to the Boeheim family, for various reasons, but was largely irrelevant otherwise

The 2013 game was @ Gtown I think

Worst loss or one that hurt the most? The one that hurt the most is a different argument.

JMO, but a double digit loss to a Patriot league team and a loss to a sub-.500 team as the #1 ranked team in the Country were each far worse than this.

That this team found a way to lose today down the stretch was not at all surprising - they'd done so on a number of occasions earlier in the year (including to Miami in their first matchup-

And that is the thing, right there.
