Over a 3-year span from 1979-81, the LSU basketball team managed to bow out of the NCAA tournament to the eventual champion each year. In '79, LSU lost in the Sweet 16 Round to Magic Johnson and the Michigan State Spartans. In '80, LSU lost in the Elite 8 Round to Darrell Griffith and the Louisville Cardinals. And in '81, LSU lost in the Final 4 Round to Isiah Thomas and the Indiana Hoosiers.
Point being, if you are going to lose, make sure to lose only to the best in the business. And if you are going to yield a classic highlight reel, make sure it's by the Player of the Tournament that season, like this one courtesy of Dr. Dunkenstein...
