re: Examples of programs and franchises being “broken” by individual games?

Jordan stealing the ball and hitting the game winner against the Jazz. That was a gut punch and effectively ended the Stockton/Malone/Sloan era with no rings and they haven't been the same since.

Piling on Miami a bit but that 2002 championship loss to Ohio State broke them for good. Butch Davis built them back up and recruited an entire NFL team that Larry Coker broke down into something barely recognizable as The U.
Hopefully with the school re-commiting to football again will get them out of their 20 year slump. College football is more interesting when Miami is competitive.

79-25 over the next 8 years. Several top 10 finishes and a national title while finishing unranked only once. It was a terrible night for the program but it definitely didn’t “break” LSU.

This possibly could be a win that broke a program.
It definitely broke a coaching staff. The program will be fine.

The NOLA No-Call
Posted on 4/12/22 at 11:52 am to HailHailtoMichigan!
Game 7 of the 2018 WCF when the Rockets missed 27 straight threes. They had the Warriors on the ropes and were on the verge of going to the NBA Finals for the first time in over twenty years. Since then, they've lost in the WCSF twice and missed the playoffs twice, and are now in full rebuild mode after posting the worst record in the entire NBA. Over the past two seasons, the Rockets have posted a combined record of 37-117.

We made the playoffs 3 years straight after that and had a winning record last year. Hardly broken

2005 NLCS game 5. Specifically this moment
This set the Astros back near a decade, they have since recovered obviously but they were on the rise and then boom, had to switch leagues to get over the stench

The game against Stanford where Toby Gerhart had a million yards and Harbaugh ran it up was the end
I’ve always regarded the blowout loss at Oregon on Halloween (which occurred a few weeks prior to the Stanford beat down) as the game that broke the program.

They were even better the following season and looked poised to have a dominant playoff run until Webber got hurt. That was the moment that truly broke the franchise.

MLB:
1992 NLCS Game 7
1994 strike for the Expos
NFL:
1998 NFCCG
CFB:
1998 UCLA @ Miami
1998 Big 12 Championship Game
2010 Boise State @ Nevada
2011 Oklahoma State @ Iowa State
CBB:
Too soon to tell, but the 2020 tournament cancellation may turn out to be this for Dayton. This upcoming season for them is the most crucial for any program in a long time, possibly ever.

I disagree. It was the home Bama game in 2012 following that. We were the better team. We played better. I will never forget that experience inside Death Valley that night

The Astros won the next game and the series... so no.
It momentarily broke Lidge, but he bounced back, ended up an All-Star and won a ring in Philly even saving two World Series games.

After Ala beat Miami in 92, the canes really struggled through the end of the decade.
2 years later they were #3 playing Nebraska in the OB had they won and Penn St lost they would have won the NC, what a terrible struggle

From 1993-99, Miami had solid 8-9 win teams every year but 1997 (and was national championship caliber in 1994) before a major resurgence in 2000.

I was coming in to say this. I was a just getting into my teenage years and my football fandom was starting to become my own rather than stories told to me by my parents and grandparents. Nebraska at the time still had that mystique of an elite program, the "blackshirt defense" was still a moniker that every CFB fan knew. I was watching LSU/Arkansas because LSU was trying to get into the SEC CG when I saw the bottom of the screen scores start to pop up and when I saw Colorado hung 62 on them I honestly thought it had to be a typo, surely it had to be 36-26 right? But no, Colorado beat the shite out of them.
And they've never been the same since. Somehow they still made the title game as a sacrificial lamb for that Miami team after LSU knocked of Tennessee funnily enough
