        Still not one of the worst beats of all time. A bad beat for sure, but nowhere near an all timer. And I did not bet the spread. I've seen quite a few games where the kicker has gotten hurt. I wouldn't call it a "miraculous event."

          I think it was because there wasn't a thought in my elsewhere I could win the bet, seen some games kicker get hurts but they always still kick the extra pt with someone else even if the guy misses

            I once lost a bet on an onside kick in the last seconds of a game...The football bounced perfectly to a player on the receiving team who ran it back untouched for a TD.

                Yup. I lost a game like that once too. I can't remember which team I bet on, but I know the game involved the Colts.

                  Onside kicks don't work anymore. Waste of time. I think I remember the announcers saying it works 8% of the time. I don't remember one working this year.

                  They should tweak the rule or nix it all together.. Come up with something else.

                    Parkey of Chicago has converted something like 30%

                    Seattles punter punted the ball....that was no onside. He'd have been better off trying to drill someone with it and hope they didn't catch it

                      True that. I think the punter was trying to onside kick it with that drop kick crap and just misses kicking the tip of the ball, he hit in the middle and it went sailing.. I do count that as an onside kick attempt.. It just failed miserably JTS..

                        On the topic of worst beats ever, for me nothing will top Michigan vs Michigan State, all Michigan has to do is punt the football and the game is over. Instead, punter fumbles the punt, then tries to punt it anyway, gets blocked, and MSU runs the ball back for a TD as the game expires. That will never ever happen again. So in terms of 1 in a million bad beats, that is it.

                        A kicker getting hurt and a team going for 2 is rare, but it'll happen from time to time I guess

                          Ohio St vs Northwestern from some years back was a punch to the gut and a kick to the balls. I forget the exact scenario but I think NW had a turnover last play of the game or overtime and the recovery by the Buckeyes destroyed anyone with a NW ticket.

                            I remember sportscenter on that one. When the ball was out in the endzone the sportscenter guys were yelling "cover it cover it" with the dial meaning of covering the fumbled ball and the spread at the same time.

                              That ball traveled back like 15-20 yards if not more into the end zone. Brutal loss.
