1.) Mississippi State has never won a national championship in anything in any sport ever in the well over 100 years they've been playing sports. This was far and away our best chance to do so so far in my lifetime.
2. That's a good point, but this one was at least equally as bad.
3. Die in a fire
These things just hurt worse when your team has never won it. The Moore thing sucked, but I'd seen us win two titles at least.
What made it worse is we were killing them most of the game and just totally gagged down the stretch. Then we blew a bunny layup that would have put us up 2 late, then the refs just missed a blatant foul on them right before that shot that would have given us free throws instead of them having the ball to shoot the 3.
Basic if you were to draw up the most soul crushing way to lose a basketball game, that was it.
And what made it double worse was we had like 10 people over at our house at the time so I had to suffer that in front of a bunch of people. That's the last time I ever watch a big game around a big group of people.
