It was back to back losses in 2000 and 2001. Both on touchdown passes on fourth and long with under two minutes left. Herb Heygood and Charles Rodgers. Then Rodgers did it again in 2002 with the catch in the back of the endzone.
Without Arnez Battle saving the day that three game run might be worse than the Michigan run.
