[QUOTE=Chisox17;400758]haha I remember that. It definitely was an airball, not an alley oop that Calvin dunked in. We freakin lucked out BIGTIME.[/QUOTE]
Well, thatās true. Demon heaved it toward the basket falling down, IIRC, and Calvin cleaned up the mess. Their fans were pissed.

[QUOTE=Normmm;400766]Not completely true? How about not even partially true.[/QUOTE]
Well, it isnāt true in that we never lost those games after big wins, especially since most of our worst losses have been OOC. But we certainly have hurt ourselves with bad losses in the past.

That was a different game, we won that game.
[QUOTE=919R;400736]not trueā¦despite how often posters claim it.[/QUOTE]
No, not really true. It just happens often enough that is seems true.
Well, it isn't true in that we never lost those games after big wins, especially since most of our worst losses have been OOC. But we certainly have hurt ourselves with bad losses in the past.Our bigger issue seems to have been the early season tournaments, probably more harmful to our post-season aspirations than the occasional slack performance against bad teams. But more recently our play has been more up-and-down, fitting the pattern better than in the early 2000's.

The original post seemed to be asking a genuine question, about how he was curious of Lutzās record against certain coaches. He got one of the reoccurring NNN responses of āMonfstraā. I just donāt have the energy. You guys have a fun off season.

I believe the term is Mofstra. Or you could try Hofmouth, but its not near as popular.
[QUOTE=Powerbait;400691]We only lost to ECU once and it was at their house. They had, back then, beaten some solid squads. They beat MU a couple of times there I believe.[/QUOTE]
What about Saint Louis? Coach Lutzā record couldnāt have been good against them. They always seemed to jump up and bite us in the early 2000ās. Even the Rodney White team.

Still that way for SLU, except I think they took one here in 05-06 when Voyoukas played for them.

Yep and the only way we have beat them there is Withers dropping about 40 and even then it took overtime!
I just remember them beating us at home in 2000-2001 season with Rodney White when we were a much better team.

Theyāve only beaten us once (maybe twice) here and weāve only beaten them once in STLā¦pretty even, unfortunately.
I just remember them beating us at home in 2000-2001 season with Rodney White when we were a much better team.Rodney didn't play that game. That was during the stretch he was out with the sprained knee.
That was a tough stretch. They wouldnāt let him play in the game at Cincy (he was dominating so the refs decided to give him 5 cheap foulsā¦ that was also the game KenKay got his lip split). Then at home against USF he hurt his knee and missed the next five.

Man, I remember the 5 cheap fouls. I remember Rodney throwing his arms up in disbelief.
How about beating Denny Crum and Louisville by 40 in Freedom Hall? Yeah, they were bad but it was still Louisville in Freedom Hall. It pretty much ended Crumās career. Same goes for Fogler at USC.

We won in overtime.

Did consistently well against DePaul too. 3-3 doesnāt seem right for Greenberg either. Didnāt we play USF more than 6 times under Lutz. Maybe Iām thinking Watkins, but 6 seems low.
