Or maybe I’m old and hallucinating.
Either quite possible.

Those assist numbers are unusual for a Jays opponent (CU opponents have the 5th lowest assist % on made baskets in the country). That tells you that SJU wasn't just taking midrange shots because that is what the Jays were giving them...they were actually running offense to get a lot of those looks.
SJU had only 4 points off of their 12 2nd half offensive rebounds, but those rebounds hurt even though they didn't score off many of them. That led to long defensive possessions for the Jays when they were trying to scramble back from a double-digit deficit.
The Jays competed better in the 2nd half, but sometimes you can lose a game in the first half like they did today.

Now the Seton Hall game looms hugely. Don't let SJU beat you twice.
