Worst loss since ....

[Plum Street]

Worst and most devastating loss since Georgetown in 1999 . Or maybe even ASU in 1991. So much at stake in all of these games . Tough to recover for any team and program from tonight.

Every road loss was devastating because of the cumulative affect.

Tonight was so much more. Team battled and should have won. It would have been a program defining win. Now we probably sit home on selection Sunday

disagree. It would have been a devastating loss if we had blown an 18-point lead and lost. This way the team learned a lot about what it takes to win on the road. Neither team played for forty minutes; they won the first half 42-24, and we won the second 40-23.

The only thing that matters is the selection committee . How do you think they will value us winning the second half tonight ?
Interesting logic

It's an almost win because we did grab the lead.

One game won't decide if Rutgers gets a NCAA bid.Rutgers had ample opportunities to win games on the road but you aren't going to win when the opponent makes more foul shots and 3 pointers.Coming close doesn't count in basketball.

This was then game we needed to have and could have had . If our season ends (we don’t give a crap about NIT)
in the big ten tournament this will be why .

We lost to UCONN one year at the RAC by 1 pt when they were number 1 in the country during the Waters years. . Would have been huge.

this was worse.
