No team is,immune to blowing a first half 20 point lead in the first or even early secomd half nowadays. The three point shot changed that. Not even a Ky or NC.
I agree. What makes this blown lead remarkable is that we blew an 18 point lead with ~16 minutes to play in a relatively low scoring game. We were outscored 41-18 to finish out a 64-59 loss. In a 64-59 game, you'd think an 18-point 2nd half lead would feel safe. I'm guessing our players felt the same way and went into coast mode and never got out of it. The absence of upperclassmen leadership and general team experience just compounded that.
