no solace, really, but not just the Shockers....

....losing at home on Senior Day to a lesser team...Wisconsin laid a huge egg against Purdue.

Those things happen.....

All the bad three point shots Wisconsin was taking gave me horrible flashbacks

Losing just hurts and lasts for days when we have a very good team and expectations are running high, especially when we got to 19 and 2 and then started backsliding.

But much prefer this than those dreadful years of the 1990's and very early 2000's, when the loses were often more predictable than the wins. They may not have hurt as much, but that was only because our expectations weren't nearly as high either.
