Three of my 16 losses (19%) at MVSU (a rebuild I just took over in Smith) have ended on
missed buzzer-beaters that would have either tied or won my team the game.
Missed layup at the buzzer down by 1:

Anyone know what the record for most missed buzzer beaters in a season is (in HD or real life)? The full-court shot technically isn't in the same ballpark as the first two, but still.
That first game included a
missed dunk and
two blown layups all in the last 3 minutes.
I remember when I first started playing way back when, I once
won four games on buzzer beaters in a single season at DePauw. But haven't been on the opposite end of it like this.
MVSU did win on a last second shot this season though (our only win of the season thus far):
