Given the most recent bad loss by OSU under Holtmann, (blowing an 18pt lead with barely more than 15 minutes to play to a team who was 4-5 when we played them, I thought I might go back and look up other similar losses in his tenure here, ie losses to .500 or worse teams
Last year -
Minnesota who was 5-8 at the time and would finish 9-22, score was 70-67
Nebraska - 8-8 at the time of the game and would finish 16-16, score 63-60
21/22
Nebraska - 8-21 at the time and would finish 10-22, score 78-70
PSU - in the B10 tourney 12-16 at the time, would finish 13-17, score 71-68
20/21
Northwestern - although 5-1 at the time would finish 9-15, score 71-70
19/20
Minnesota - 4-5 at the time, would finish 15-16, score 84-71
Minnesota again - 10-8 at the time would finish 15-16, score 62-59
18/19
Rutgers - 7-6 at the time, but would finish 14-17, score 64-61
Illinois - 9-15 at the time, would finish 12-21, score 63-56
Northwestern - 12-17 at the time, would finish 13-19, score 68-50
