Wasn't worse than Kansas losing to TCU, but still not a good loss.

Losing the 15 point lead in the second half makes it worse as a game based loss. Straight statistical numbers, agree with you. For what happened in the loss, I think this is way worse than just not playing well.

They led 66-51 with 10:30 to play. They got outscored 33 to 12 the rest of the way. That's what makes it worse (in my book).

This is a weird year for college basketball, I can't remember a year where so many different teams were #1 and shuffled in and out of the top 5.

Here is the preseason top 25 (I know this is a stupid poll)

Here is the current poll

http://collegebasketball.ap.org/poll

Kentucky #3 (unranked)
NCST #6 (unranked)
UNC #11 (unranked)
UCLA #13 (unranked)
Missouri #15 (unranked)
Creighton #16 (unranked)
UNLV #18 (unranked)
Baylor #19 (unranked)
SDSU #20 (unranked)
Cinn #24 (unranked)
FSU #25 (unranked)

11 out of 25 Pre-Season are unranked

Of the top 10 Current v. the predicted top 10, they called 6 out of 10 (which will change to less next week to less because of UF).

Not to mention PSU hadn't won a conference game in a year.
Again Miami has the door opened for them to secure a higher ranking and a possible 1 seed, having to go through Duke is just about the toughest path you could travel though.

If we beat Duke I wouldn't be surprised to see us jump Zaga.

If Duke beats Virginia and us, I expect them to be #1.
