National Champions in football & basketball who had large blowout losses

during the regular season
UConn losing 80-something to 40-something against Louisville to end the regular season has to be one of the more lopsided losses for a national champion
Can anyone else think of other good examples
Eta: can include a conference tourney/championship loss as well
Eta2: include nfl as well
And this is not taking away anything from UCONN or any other NCs. Great job by then to turn it around in the big tournament and win the games that mattered most

Pro or college?
College football is the only sport where losing in the regular season actually matters.

LSU got thoroughly dominated by Florida in 2003 before going on to win the national title.
It was only 19-7, but LSU only scored on a punt return.
