We have not lost at home since 2015. I am wondering when our last bad loss was? It hasn't happened this year or last. It may or may not date back to 2015.

We haven't had March success but to get that job done without a bunch of 4 and 5 star talent is pretty amazing.

I hope we can change things in March this year. We sure could use that as a fan base...if the other stuff isn't enough.

We haven't lost any games outside of Kenpom tier A or B since 2015, when we lost at East Carolina and home to Tulane.

Edit: scratch that. Temple at home in 2016 was not tier A or B. Not nearly as bad as the 2015 losses though.

It looks like the Temple loss was also in 2015 not 2016...unless I am reading it wrong.

So our last home loss and our last bad loss was in 2015. That is very very good!

Correct, it was in December of 2015. Kenpom calls it the 2016 season. Either way, it has indeed been a good streak of avoiding bad losses.

haha...my bad you are right...it was Jan 16 of 16. Almost 2 calendar years of no home loss or a bad loss.

You guys seem confused. We got swept by Temple that year and they won the league. The first loss was end of December 2015 at home. Then we lost by 2 in 2OT at Temple a couple weeks later. Are we saying one of these would be our last bad loss? I don't like Temple but they did go 14-4 in the league that year.

Our last home loss was over 2 calendar years ago.

**sedziobs** · 01-11-2018, 10:36 AM

Our last home loss was to Temple on Dec 29, 2015. It was also our last loss outside of Kenpom Tiers, which is the best way I know of to measure a "bad loss".
