    Bad Beat Saturday

    Fresno State failing to cover against UCLA. It wasn't my play but I'm still trying to talk my friend off the ledge. He had the Bulldogs -7.

    Any others today?

    You know your luck is sh*t when a PAT try is returned for two points the other way and that's the difference in you covering the spread.

    Oh and then Fresno State takes a knee on the one yard line on the last play of the game. Some coaches would have punched that one in.

    The end of that gang sums up my Saturday

    -Ohio St blowing a huge lead in the 4th
    -Wisconsin giving up 24 unanswered in the 2nd half to lose
    -Miami blowing it late

    Anyone have anything for tonight?
    Hawaii @ home?
    Washington-Stanford?

    After I talked my buddy down from the ledge and made sure he was okay, I played Penn State and UNLV. Any thoughts?

    Fresno State was not a bad beat. I was at that game. UCLA made two bonehead decisions... going for it at the end of the 1st half instead of kicking the FG gave Fres State the ball back and momentum to drive down and score... even worse... 15 yard line 3rd and 10 incomplete pass HOLDING on Fresno State, instead of declining and forcing Fres State to kick the FG the dumbasses ACCEPT the penalty, giving Fresno State a free down. They go on to score.

    Even after that, UCLA down only 5 marches all the way inside the 20 and then fumbles the ball. Should have scored.

    Fres State was given this game and they still didn't cover. That isn't a bad beat.

    Ohio State being up all game long... Minny has it 4th and 14 to end the game they convert and get a TD to backdoor cover...

    Wisconsin up 19 - 0 on a bad football team giving up 27 unanswered.

    THOSE are bad beats.
