Nice diversion in best GW loss ever
Instead of discussing worst loss ever such as Iowa and on and on, how about best loss ever.
Easy, 1993 Sweet Sixteen loss to Michigan, 72-64.
Despite defeat, the game brings back many nice memories of great Colonials. After missing first 10 shots and falling way behind, watch Jarvis, change strategy and use a deep bench to get back in the game. In case you have forgotten, Dare had his worst game ever, 0 points. 5 rebounds and 3 turnovers. Evans off the bench was at his best. Interesting mention by Billy Packer that Jarvis benched Evans for not playing defense earlier in the season.
Here's box score

Re: Nice diversion in best GW loss ever
Michigan went up 10-0, I believe, and Jim Nantz all but declared the game over. GW went up by 3 in the second half but couldn't finish off The Fab 5.
What was the second best loss? Maybe the double overtime loss to Georgetown during the 1980-81 season? Five point loss to 17th ranked Gonzaga in the BB&T?
