Worst weekend ever as a Cyclone fan?

It will make the better ones that much sweeter WHEN it happens.
When we lost to Hampton, I was pissed off until May.

That 1997 game.... Cameron Dollar plowed over Jacy Holloway and got away with a crucial bucket. The "5 second call" on Clay. What a screw job by the officials.
The Mich State game was another reffing bullcrap that tilted the game in their favor in their own backyard no less.
Agree, Chris melting down just shows how young he is. If you have been around as long as some of us this weekend was a minor frustration
.I mean in hoops teams never even started down the path of success in this tourney. It was over quickly.

The real crime of the 99-00 season was the idiot committee had ISU as a 2 seed. Clearly they blew it. We were by far a 1 seed. We won the Big 12 convincingly. If it was KU they would have been a 1.
How about a chance to win Big 12 North in football. Only instead run the ball to the middle of the field to set up kick. ISU runs it to the hash and ISU then misses the chip shot kick.
Those of us who have been on this Cyclone train a long time have seen it derail time and again

Good news is, we went from the 5th biggest spread upset of all time to the 6th thanks to Purdue.
Like many have said the MSU loss is the one I just can’t shake. Sure it hurts to watch both the men’s and women’s teams seasons end in the first round, but neither was realistically a national title contender. To know your team is that good, to watch them prove it all season and against the eventual champion in a de facto home game, and then have it all fall apart at the very end.
It hurts so much that I can’t help but keep coming back and watching it. I’ve probably rewatched the game 20 times since it happened. I don’t know if I watch it wishing that just once the ending would change or if I’m addicted to the sadness and pain of it all.

Seems like a lot of people missed this point. I'm not talking one basketball game. I'm talking a weekend of ****** results.
It hurts a ton because we had such hopes for these teams and because the teams are filled with such good people.
The current pain is something we feel as the programs are on the ascent. It is better than the numbness of not even being in the tournament and not even having high aspirations.
The pain is lessened a bit by knowing that we aren't going to come crashing down next year. There is plenty of good reason to be hopeful for next year in MBB, WBB, and Wrestling.
In the words of our fearless leader @ChrisMWilliams , "We aren't Cyclone fans because it's easy. We are Cyclone fans because it's Awesome!"
Go Cyclones!
