Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 1315026, member: 716"] I'm surprised no one's mentioned Penn. Whenever I talk about gut-punch losses, my parents are quick to one-up me with that one: we win our way to Greensboro in 1979 after Penn upsets North Carolina (#1) and St. John's upsets Duke (#2). Cake-walk to the Final Four? No. Loss to an Ivy and a long and sad drive back from Greensboro. Iowa and Charlotte also are spoken of in hushed tones. For me: 1. Vermont 2. Butler 3. Arkansas 4. UMass 5. Ohio State Was too young for Indiana or Richmond to bother me as much, but I remember everyone else being crushed by those (and Navy and Rhode Island). [/QUOTE]
